Cameroon beats Malawi 3-0 to win Women's Africa Cup of Nations for the first
time
RABAT, Morocco (AP) --- Cameroon finally won the Women's Africa Cup of Nations
on Sunday with a 3-0 victory over tournament debutant Malawi.
Marie Ngah Manga headed two goals and Naomi Eto scored the other while Cameroon
kept Malawi's Chawinga sisters in check to claim its first win in the final at
the fourth attempt.
The Indomitable Lionesses, who failed to qualify for the previous edition of
the tournament, had lost on their last three appearances in the final -- all to
10-time winner Nigeria.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino attended the game along with CAF president
Patrice Motsepe.
