The early goal settled the hosts and provided a platform for them to control proceedings against a PWD Bamenda side searching for a response.<\/p>\n<p>Colombe maintained their advantage for much of the encounter, showing the organisation and composure expected of defending champions. PWD attempted to find a way back into the contest, but their efforts to breach Colombe\u2019s defence proved unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p>The champions eventually sealed the three points deep into stoppage time when Kevin Ndzana struck in the 90+8th minute to make it 2-0. His late effort put the finishing touch on Colombe\u2019s return to Elite One and ensured their first league appearance of the campaign ended in victory.<\/p>\n<p>The result marks an encouraging start to Colombe\u2019s title defence following their CAF Champions League exploits, with the club now turning their attention back to the domestic championship. For PWD Bamenda, the defeat represents a setback as they continue their search for consistency in the early stages of the season.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Angu Lesley Football Wrter,kick442.com-Cameroon Defending MTN Elite One champions Colombe Sportive du Dja&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":30209,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[218,56],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cameroon-football","category-elite-one"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1.1 -
