Cameroon’s Lekié Football Filles (Lekié FF) finished their maiden CAF Women’s Champions League campaign on a high note, securing a historic third-place finish after thrashing Uganda’s Kawempe Muslim Ladies 5-0 in Saturday’s play-off in Egypt.
The Cameroonian side, coached by Stéphane Ndzana, produced a dominant attacking display to claim the bronze medal in the 2026 edition of the continental competition.
Raïssa Nnanga led the charge with a brace, while Nchout Ajara, Tim Shalom Makoma and Takounda Engolo also found the net to complete the emphatic victory.
The result represented a strong response from Lekié FF following their narrow 1-0 semi-final defeat to Morocco’s AS FAR, as they recorded their biggest win of the tournament.
Their third-place finish marks a historic milestone for Cameroonian women's club football, with Lekié FF becoming the first club from the country to feature in the CAF Women’s Champions League final tournament and secure Cameroon’s first-ever podium finish in the competition.
On their maiden appearance on the continental stage, Ndzana’s team return from Egypt with a bronze medal, capping an impressive debut campaign.
