If there Women’s AFCON 2022 turned into a fiasco for Cameroon, with an elimination in the quarter-finals against Nigeria (0-1), the Indomitable Lionesses managed to avoid total failure. Indeed, the gang of Gabriel Zabo disposed of Botswana (1-0) this Sunday in a classification match in Rabat, Morocco. This success allows Cameroonians, like Senegal a little earlier, to validate their ticket for the intercontinental play-off which will take place from February 18 to 23, 2023 in New Zealand, and which will allow three teams out of the 10 present to qualify for the 2023 Women’s World Cup.
As a symbol, it is the star Ajara Nchout, who has not been very successful since the start of this CAN, who offered this very important victory to his country. The Inter Milan striker scored just before half-time with a superb floating shot from more than 25 meters after turning around (1-0, 45e+2).
Enough to put an end to the dream of Botswana, which however comes out of its first CAN with honors. 8e a finalist in 2015 and 2019, Cameroon can hope to be present again in a year in Australia and New Zealand.
