Africa 20 April 2026 at 02:37

The 14th matchday of the Cameroonian championship, marking the start of the season's second half, delivered all its promised drama this Sunday, April 19, 2026. League leaders Unisport were held by Aigle Royal de Menoua, while Colombe Sportive emerged victorious in the high-stakes clash with Coton Sport de Garoua.

This was the marquee match-up, and it didn't disappoint. At the Ahmadou Ahidjo Omnisports Stadium, Colombe Sportive du Sud clinched a prestigious win over Coton Sport (1-0).

Captain Randy Ntuwe lifted his side just before the break with a stunning free kick (45+1’). At the back, goalkeeper Édouard Sombang was rock-solid, pulling off no fewer than seven decisive saves.

After their convincing display on matchday 13, the Southern Birds confirmed their resurgence and now stand as serious contenders as the second half of the campaign unfolds.
On the other hand, Coton Sport missed the chance to put pressure on the leaders and saw their momentum stall.

Unisport held but remain solid at the top

On the road in Bamendzi, Unisport du Haut-Nkam were held to a draw by Aigle Royal de la Menoua (1-1). The home side struck first through Blaise Ndiforchu before Fredy Lobe Mbeng snatched a dramatic equalizer in stoppage time (90+2’).

This result highlights the mental resilience of the reigning first-half champions, who managed to claw back from a precarious position. Unisport thus retain their spot at the summit, despite this slight hiccup.

Victoria hand PWD their first home loss, Dynamo overturn Fortuna

In Bamenda, Victoria United pulled off a shock, handing PWD their first home defeat of the season (1-0). Sanda Fouda netted the only goal of the match, furthering Limbé's impressive record against the Abakwa Boys in recent years.

In Yaoundé, Dynamo de Douala claimed a dominant victory over AS Fortuna (3-1). After falling behind, the Bon Ba Djob turned the tide thanks to a penalty brace from Jules Kouoh and a goal from Nyetam.
