UNIFFAC U20: Central African Republic eliminate Congo and book place at AFCON

It is done for Central African Republic. The Fauves of Bas-Oubangui won the first semi-final of the UNIFFAC tournament 2-0 against Congo on Wednesday at Stade Olembé in Yaoundé and qualified for the 2027 Ghana U20 Africa Cup of Nations.

A modest run

However, Central African Republic's run had been far from straightforward. After recording a 1-1 draw against Chad, they lost 0-2 to Cameroon in the group stage. That single point was enough to finish second in Group A and reach the semi-finals.
Against Congo, the Fauves were the more clinical side. A clear-cut victory sends Central African Republic into the final.

See you in the final

Having qualified for the 2027 Ghana U20 Africa Cup of Nations, Central African Republic must now wait for their final opponent. It will be the winner of the other semi-final between Cameroon and Gabon, with the UNIFFAC title at stake.
