Cameroon/Malawi: Cameroon Make History, Crush Malawi 3-0 to Win Maiden Wafcon Title

[Leadership] Cameroon have finally conquered Africa, winning the TotalEnergies CAF Women's Africa Cup of Nations for the first time after a commanding 3-0 victory over Malawi in Sunday's final at the Moulay El Hassan Stadium in Rabat.

Cameroon have achieved a historic first by winning the TotalEnergies CAF Women's Africa Cup of Nations, defeating Malawi 3-0 in the final. Marie Ngah scored twice, with Naomi Ndjoah Eto adding a third goal. This victory makes Cameroon only the fourth nation to win the Women's Africa Cup of Nations, following Nigeria, Equatorial Guinea and South Africa.

It also ends a painful streak of three final defeats for the Indomitable Lionesses, who lost to Nigeria in 2004, 2014 and 2016. Cameroon's defensive organization and ruthless finishing proved decisive, ensuring Malawi's debut campaign ended without a title win.
