Squad21 Sep 2026

Mohamed Niaré keeps Victoria United in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match19 Sep 2026

Victoria United make it 3 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Victoria United have 3 straight wins of it.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Victoria United

Mohamed Niaré 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.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Real improvement from Laurian Nguefack at Victoria United

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Laurian Nguefack is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Words at Victoria United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Facundo Moreira 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.

One of those days for Pierre Akono

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.90, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match19 Sep 2026

Victoria United see off Dynamo Douala

Three points for Victoria United, 1‑0 the final word against Dynamo Douala in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Bryan Nokoue was immovable

12 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Brayann Nana runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 10. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market24 Aug 2026

Carl Eyong asks to leave Victoria United

“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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Victoria United

Joan Gaona 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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Victoria United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Facundo Moreira 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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Facundo Moreira has outgrown this division

There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Victoria United know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Market24 Aug 2026

The Samuel Handy conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: AS Police will make the call about Samuel Handy this week. Victoria United have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Market24 Aug 2026

Facundo Moreira brings the grey hairs Victoria United lacked

At 37, he has seen every situation this season can produce, twice. The legs will be managed; the head is the purchase.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Joan Gaona 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 Victoria United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market17 Aug 2026

Samuel Handy attracts admirers

The name of Samuel Handy has come up in conversations Victoria United were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Thomas Bawak Etta falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad17 Aug 2026

This league is too small for Joan Gaona

He is doing things on a Saturday afternoon that nobody around him can answer, which is flattering for about one season and a problem after that. Victoria United will not keep him by pretending otherwise.

Market17 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Victoria United and Solomon Ogberahwe

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Too much change too quickly at Victoria United

16 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

In brief
