Cameroon Ends Nigeria's Reign at Women's AFCON: Sports JournalistBy stunning Nigeria—10-time WAFCON champion—1-0 in the quarter-finals, the Indomitable Lionesses have unveiled a new face and sent a clear message to their opponents, Renaud Inang told Sputnik Africa."The victory over Nigeria feels just like winning a final. It marks the end of an era for Nigeria and the dawn of a new one for Cameroon. Most importantly, the Indomitable Lionesses have qualified for the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil," he noted. The 2026 WAFCON has now reached the semi-finals, setting up two matchups: Malawi against Algeria and Cameroon against Morocco.Malawi is cast as the "underdog," but their match against Algeria "promises fireworks," as does the clash between Morocco, 2024 runner-up, and Cameroon, Inang emphasized.
