Under the coaching of Charles Okere, the team has one more match remaining in the group stage, facing JKT Queens on Sunday. So far, they have accumulated six points from two matches.
Vihiga Queens started the game brightly, applying pressure on Kigali. However, the Kenyan champions were let down by some poor finishing.
A well-saved effort from Phelistus Kadari was the result of Kigali goalkeeper Angeline Ndakimana's quick reaction, after the Queens midfielder was given some space and time to shoot.

Kigali did not adopt a defensive approach after the restart, pushing forward in search of the equalizing goal.
Midfielders Marthe Nyiramwiza and Mutuyemariya Florentine were both introduced in the 66th minute by Kigali head coach Daniella Niyibimenya, as Kigali looked to take control of the game.
Pushing forward in numbers left Kigali vulnerable at the back, and they were punished by Merice Wayondi.
