Match

Colombe du Dja et Lobo march on in the cup

Aigle Royal de la Menoua are out and Colombe du Dja et Lobo go through, 2‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Squad

Real improvement from Frédéric Yenang at Colombe du Dja et Lobo

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Frédéric Yenang is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

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.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Colombe du Dja et Lobo

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Mario Kouma

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

No hiding place for Arthur Yene

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

Match

Adama Traoré sends Colombe du Dja et Lobo past Panthere du Nde

It finished 1‑0, and it was Adama Traoré’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Colombe du Dja et Lobo.

Player ratings

Bertrand Essiane Ndjongolo was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.52. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad

Colombe du Dja et Lobo count the cost of losing Frédéric Yenang

22 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Market

Marius Essapa Esseme 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.

The terraces

Supporters turn on the $40.0K sale of Steeve Lima

He is going to Panthere du Nde, the club has $40.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

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

Steeve Lima moves on

Panthere du Nde pay $40.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market

Marcel Djialeu attracts admirers

The name of Marcel Djialeu has come up in conversations Colombe du Dja et Lobo were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Words at Colombe du Dja et Lobo training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Hamidou Hamza is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
