Midfield gem Bong Sergio was voted Man of the Match after a dazzling performance in the heart of the pitch. He dictated tempo with calm authority and nearly gave Options the lead when he pounced on a rebound, only to see his strike ruled out for offside after Ngam Leonard\u2019s fine save from Christopher Fai. His display was a masterclass in midfield control and creativity.<\/p>\n<p>Across the season, Ambe Oris carried the torch for Options as their most reliable finisher. With 11 goals to his name, he was rightly crowned Player of the Season, his consistency, leadership, and clinical edge underlining why he is regarded as one of the deadliest forwards in the region. Even though the final wasn\u2019t his day to score, his contributions throughout the campaign were decisive in taking his side all the way to the last hurdle.<\/p>\n<p>Between the posts, goalkeeper Hanta was recognized for his consistency after registering 9 clean sheets across the season. His commanding presence, reflexes, and calm under pressure earned him the Best Goalkeeper award, further highlighting the depth of quality within the Options Sports squad.<\/p>\n<p>The officiating team also rose to the occasion, with referee Shey Richard handling the intensity of the clash with maturity. Alongside his assistants, he controlled the tempo of the game well and managed key decisions with authority, including the offside call that denied Sergio a goal.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, penalties separated two giants after 90 minutes of tactical battle. Dream Team FC may have lifted the trophy, but the brilliance of Options Sports Academy, through Sergio, Oris, Hanta, and the team\u2019s collective fight,left a lasting mark on this historic final. The game was more than a final; it was a showcase of resilience, drama, and the rising stars of Cameroonian football.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92025 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
