Cameroon Annihilates DR Congo 6-0 to Clinch UNIFFAC U17 AFCON Qualifiers!

The Democratic Republic of Congo’s dreams of reaching the U17 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) were shattered in the most brutal fashion as Cameroon’s Lion Cubs ran riot in a 6-0 demolition at the UNIFFAC qualifiers final in Douala on Saturday.

With a place at the continental showpiece on the line, DR Congo found themselves completely outclassed, suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of a Cameroonian side that has been simply unstoppable throughout the tournament.

Lightning Start, Relentless Finish – DR Congo Torn Apart

The writing was on the wall just 10 seconds into the match! 🕒⚡ Franck Mafany Luma struck almost immediately, sending shockwaves through the Congolese defence and giving the hosts a dream start.

Before the Leopards could even recover, Luc Nzene doubled the lead, Oscar Etoundi made it three, and a disastrous own goal pushed the score to 4-0 before halftime!

It could have been worse! 😱 Mafany Luma had a golden chance to pile on more misery, but his penalty attempt in the 43rd minute was wasted—a brief moment of relief for DR Congo in an otherwise nightmarish first half.
