This Sunday, August 2, TotalEnergies CAF Women's AFCON Morocco 2026 brings us the last two fixtures of matchday 2. Group D takes center stage with two must-watch encounters on the agenda. Headlining the action, Ghana faces Cameroon in a battle for top spot. Meanwhile, Mali and Cape Verde are already fighting for their tournament survival.

Ghana vs Cameroon: the showdown for top spot

Kick-off is set for 17:00 GMT at the Moulay Rachid Stadium. Both the Black Queens and the Indomitable Lionesses are undefeated after their opening matches, and now they collide for pole position in the group and a big step toward the quarter-finals. Ghana overpowered Cape Verde 2-0 in their opener, while Cameroon edged out Mali 2-1 in a tight contest.

This is more than just a group match—it's a Women's AFCON classic. This will be their 10th meeting in the competition, with Ghana holding the advantage: 5 wins to Cameroon's 3, and one draw. Expect intensity and commitment at the highest level.

Mali vs Cape Verde: do-or-die duel

The showdown is scheduled for 20:00 GMT at Larbi Zaouli Stadium in Casablanca. There is no room for error—both Mali and Cape Verde suffered opening day defeats and must win to keep their hopes alive.

These two sides know each other well. In the qualifiers, Mali claimed a 1-0 win in Praia, but Cape Verde pulled off a stunning comeback in Bamako, winning 4-2 to qualify 4-3 on aggregate. Seven goals in total and a wild, dramatic scenario.
