Lead scorer Katche Boris took his tally for the season to four goals after his latest strike against Unisport.

Racing stops Foncha

Racing Bafousam beat Foncha Street at the Bamendzi stadium by 3-1 to take the top spot of the league with 10points. This win came after they had beaten Rangers FC Bafut away in Bambili by 1-0.

Carter opened scores for visitors from the spot but hosts were immediately redeemed by Menick Joel’s equalizer. An own goal gave hosts an upper hand in the game with Epoune Louis’ striker doubling the lead and affirming victory for Racing.

Foncha Street FC who had been league leaders since match day one saw their top spot taken away from them after conceiving their first defeat of the season.

Stade Bertoua returns to winning ways after consecutive defeats
