Match

Colombe du Dja et Lobo up to position 1

20 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Match

Nobody wants to play Colombe du Dja et Lobo right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad

Tempers go at Colombe du Dja et Lobo

Yvan Mvondo Olama was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

One of those days for Edmond Sindjo

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.04, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match

Edmond Sindjo sends Colombe du Dja et Lobo past Unisport Bafang

It finished 2‑0, and it was Edmond Sindjo’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Colombe du Dja et Lobo.

Player ratings

One of those days for Luc Bide Ndohoungar

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.55, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Siya Msomi

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

A defender's afternoon for Arthur Yene

Defensive actions: 18. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Loan watch

Jude Enow Enow has seen enough of Panthere du Nde

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Colombe du Dja et Lobo, and 3 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad

Siya Msomi wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Colombe du Dja et Lobo know it.

Squad

Tempers go at Colombe du Dja et Lobo

Jean Hugues Eyango was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

Yvan Mvondo Olama runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings

One of those days for Edmond Sindjo

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.96, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Boardroom

Wages eat 279% of everything Colombe du Dja et Lobo earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Match

Colombe du Dja et Lobo see off Canon Yaounde

Three points for Colombe du Dja et Lobo, 2‑0 the final word against Canon Yaounde in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

No hiding place for Cédric Landry Djomo

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Cédric Landry Djomo, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

Arthur Yene shuts the door

Defensive actions: 17, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Hamidou Hamza shuts the door

Defensive actions: 17, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad

Jean Hugues Eyango in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Colombe du Dja et Lobo this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Yvan Mvondo Olama

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Henry Tchikeu sends Colombe du Dja et Lobo past Aigle Royal de Moungo

It finished 2‑0, and it was Henry Tchikeu’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Colombe du Dja et Lobo.

Player ratings

One of those days for Henry Tchikeu

Player ratings

Nothing got past Arthur Yene

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 17 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Loan watch

Jude Enow Enow wants to come home

“I did not go to Panthere du Nde to sit and watch. I want to come back to Colombe du Dja et Lobo and fight for my place.” 1 appearances in 5 matches say the rest.

Squad

No hiding place for Adam Musah

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Adam Musah, and the manager let it.

Squad

Henry Tchikeu finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Colombe du Dja et Lobo have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Hamidou Hamza

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 13 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

The Patrick Fergani conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Dynamo Douala will make the call about Patrick Fergani this week. Colombe du Dja et Lobo have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Mario Kouma asks to leave Colombe du Dja et Lobo

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Colombe du Dja et Lobo get their man

The chase for Samuel Nkono Kwedi ended with $16.0K changing hands and Fauve Azur Elite out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Boardroom

139% of the income goes out in wages at Colombe du Dja et Lobo

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Match

Colombe du Dja et Lobo find a way past Dynamo Douala

Dynamo Douala made Colombe du Dja et Lobo work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market

Canon Yaounde come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Colombe du Dja et Lobo did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Tempers go at Colombe du Dja et Lobo

Yvan Mvondo Olama was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Panthere du Nde watching Patrick Fergani

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Colombe du Dja et Lobo have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market

Colombe du Dja et Lobo turn down Gazelle Garoua for Luc Bide Ndohoungar

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Yvan Mvondo Olama was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Siya Msomi stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Siya Msomi and Colombe du Dja et Lobo agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
