Match

Mahamat Harouna leads the rout of Stars Jeunes Talents

3‑0, and Mahamat Harouna took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Elect Sport tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings

A brace, and Mahamat Harouna takes the afternoon — 8.56

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Mahamat Harouna provided it, and the 8.56 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Gérard Nodjiram

Successful dribbles: 27. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Moral Djimhotoum is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Boardroom

4 academy players handed senior numbers at Elect Sport

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

Gérard Nodjiram has improved at 27, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 4 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Squad

Alfan Suaib stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alfan Suaib and Elect Sport agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Words at Elect Sport training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ferdinand Gassina 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Frédéric Djoita

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.

In brief
