Mukura and Rayon Sports played out a 1-1 deadlock in a rescheduled Peace Cup semifinal game held at Huye Stadium on Tuesday.

Boateng Mensah had to cancel out Abeddy Biramahire's fine finish, setting up a gripping second leg next week.

The match was abandoned in the 27th minute due to power outage at Huye Stadium on 15 April, and Rwanda's football federation mandated that the game be replayed

It was resumed from where it left off, and neither team managed to find the back of the net in the first half.

Biramahire was at the centre of attention yet again as he gave the 2023 champions a lead, striking into the top corner from close range in the 57 minutes after Aziz Bassane's impressive efforts, registering his third Peace Cup goal and fifth of the season.

However, Mensah equalised two minutes later with a superb header after Fred Niyonizeye set him up from a corner kick.

The second-leg tie is due on Wednesday, 30 April.
