Ghana will face Rwanda in a friendly in Kigali after the game against Mauritania was called off. 

The Black Stars were expected to play their West African neighbours three days after the final AFCON qualifier against Kenya in Accra.

However, plans in the camp of the senior national team has change and the team will now fly to Kigali to face the Amavubi's.

The game will serve as a preparatory match for coach Kwesi Appiah, who is fine tuning his team for AFCON 2019.

With the team already booking their place at the biennial tournament, Kwesi Appiah named a 24 man squad that included five debutantes and some returning old faces.

Meanwhile, Rwanda will use the friendly as a building process for the qualifying series for AFCON 2021.

The team will leave for Kigali on Monday after the game against Kenya on Saturday.
