Unisport Bafang vs Cotonsport

Unisport Bafang inflicted Cotonsport's first defeat of the season with a hard-fought 1-0 victory in a top-of-the-table clash at the Stade Municipal de Bafang on Thursday. The result sees the hosts open up a commanding four-point lead at the summit of the Elite One. Rostand Mbai proved the difference once again, breaking the deadlock just three minutes into the second half. The in-form striker struck in the 48th minute to send the home crowd into raptures, adding another decisive goal to an impressive personal campaign. The defeat is a significant blow for Cotonsport, who had been the only unbeaten side in the division and hadn't lost to Bafang since 2013. Unisport now sit on 26 points from 12 matches, four clear of their nearest rivals, and look increasingly commanding in the title race.
