[RFI] Cameroon claimed a first Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title when they beat Malawi 3-0 in Sunday's final in Morocco, with Marie Ngah Manga's first-half double helping the the Indomitable Lionesses seal victory.
Cameroon's women's football team, known as the Indomitable Lionesses, secured their maiden Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title on Sunday after a 3-0 victory over Malawi in Morocco. The match was played at the Moulay El Hassan stadium in Rabat, with FIFA chief Gianni Infantino presenting the medals to the players alongside CAF president Patrice Motsepe.
This win marks just the fourth time since 1998 that a team has won the title, with only Nigeria having more victories (10). Cameroon's impressive performance, which included a first-half double from Marie Ngah Manga, saw them lead 3-0 at halftime. Despite Malawi's fairytale run to the final, making their debut at the continental championship, they were unable to match Cameroon's dominance.
