The head coach of the indomitable lionesses of Cameroon Gabriel Zabo, has named six home based players in his final squad to represent Cameroon at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup qualifiers playoffs scheduled for New Zealand.
The Women’s World Cup playoffs will take place in the island nation from the 18 to the 23rd of February 2023, with the indomitable lions of Cameroon been one of the 10 Nations that will be vying for the three remaining tickets for the 2023 Women’s World Cup to be jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand in July and August this year.
After failing to pick one of the four tickets allocated for the Confederation of African Football (CAF), Cameroon just like Senegal, will have to go through the Intercontinental playoffs, to try and get one of the three tickets left.

The six local players include goalkeeping duo Biya Cathy and Ongmahan Marthe of Éclair of Sa’a and Lekie FF respectively.

The foreign Contingent of players is led by captain Gabriel Aboudi Onguene, Nchout Ajara, Estelle Laura Johnson, amongst others.
The indomitable lions will play Thailand in their first game, and should they solve the Thai equation, they will face Portugal in the next round of games.
