| Burundi national league |
Burundi football to return by May 21st according to the sports officials.
The league was suspended more than a month after allowing political rallies to be held in stadia ahead of general elections.
While the remainder of the continent’s domestic leagues has either been paused or cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Burundi Football Federation (BFF) are ready to restart their league and cup competitions after the May 20 elections.
The country’s top-flight has three rounds remaining, with Ngozi-based Le Messager holding a four-point advantage at the top of the table over Musongati, who have a game in hand and will be the first back in action when they take on Athletico Olympic on Thursday next week.
