(Business in Cameroon) - The Indomitable Lions, Cameroon's national female football team, return this 29 November 2016 to the arena of Yaoundé Omnisports stadium, to face the Black Queens of Ghana. The match counts towards the semi-final of the 10th edition of the Women's African Cup of Nations, that Cameroon is hosting since 19 November 2016.

We are very serene. Our objective is clear, to win our five matches to lift the trophy. We are on track with our first three victories and I think that, against Ghana, the momentum will not be broken. We are playing in Cameroon. The public is always there for us”, confides Enow Ngachu, the Cameroonian team coach.

After the group stage, Cameroonians and Ghanaians remain unbeaten, but only the Cameroonian goal has not been breached. A streak which the Ghanaian coach Yussif Basigi, hopes to end this afternoon. «The Cameroon defence, even though the best in the tournament up until now, is not impenetrable and I will not reveal the strategy we will use to break this wall», she declares.

The second semi-final of the tournament will oppose the Nigerian team (already seven times winner of the tournament in nine editions) against South Africa. The match will be played in the Omnisports stadium of Limbé, a seaside city in the South West Region of the country.
