Eclair Forfeited their game among a ongoing dispute releasing a statement
The executive board of the Éclair Football Girls of SA’A Club informs the national and international public, as well as all stakeholders in the sporting community, of extremely serious legal, sporting, and social events resulting from manifestly illegal, irregular, and sporting decisions and actions attributable to the Cameroonian Football Federation and certain of its administrative officials.
By a decision lacking any statutory, regulatory, or legal basis, discovered on social media and never notified to the club, the Secretary General of FECAFOOT administratively suspended the Club.
On the basis of this illegal suspension, the Secretary General of the Federation arrogated to himself the right, in total lack of authority, competence, and mandate, to install a Provisional Management Committee to head the Club
In pursuing these illegal acts, the Federation proceeded with an unjustified refusal to issue licenses to the Club’s players, without individual disciplinary action, without regulatory basis, and outside of any adversarial procedure.
It is worth recalling that the Éclair Football Fille de SA’A club has regularly paid the affiliation and licensing fees for the players and coaches on its roster.
Incidentally, such a refusal:
– violates the players’ fundamental right to practice their sport;
constitutes a disguised collective sanction, prohibited by the general principles of disciplinary law;

A intriguing contest ahead for two teams in preseason ahead of their domestic campaigns. Both made interesting reinforcements in the off season, Corinthians saw the return of Ana Vitória a starlet in their Copa Libertadores succes in 2017 when they defeated Colo Colo under the name Audax/Corinthians. Experienced Paola Garcia comes in also to strengthen the midfield. Highly talented Belén Aquino comes in from a excellent period at Internacional. The squad contains a wealth of experience, Erika, Andressa Alves, Tamires, Gabi Zanotti who nearing 41 comes off another inspirational year that saw her return to the international scene for the Brásilian national team. Duda Sampaio, Vic Albuquerque, Jaqueline all provide goal threats with Jhonson a starlet of the team improving each year. While 2025 was another exceptional year for the Libertadores, BrasilerãoFemenino champions it ended sour after a thrashing by Palmeiras in the Paulistao Femenina final, when they were overun, looking more jaded and with not much rest since that final in mid December. The Timao will be prepared as best as possible and certainly look to use as much as the squad as possible in the two games.
Gotham enter the contest having a three weeks period in Europe to sharpen up following their successful NWSL campaign and inaugural Concacaf Women’s Champions Cup winners. While they will miss the likes of Tierna Davidson and Esther González there is no shortage of capable talent. The late signature of the highly talented USWNT youth international Jordynn Dudley to bolster the attack, coming from a excellent college career at FSU adds to the forward line. With a very solid defence when at their best seeing the rise of Lily Reale, adding to the experience of Jess Carter, Emily Sonnett, with Brasil’s Bruninha, a highly talented midfield Jaedyn Shaw, Rose Lavelle, Midge Purce were added to by Savannah Mccaskill and exciting Ghana talent Stella Nyamekye coming back from her loan period from Fort Lauderdale, capable of feeding the forward line and adding another goal threat, with the likes of Stengel and Howell.
For the spectators in the stadium and home alike it is a great opportunity to witness more great talents, however what the tempo of the game we will see is difficult to judge given the status of the period both clubs are in. But the prestige of the tournament with a prize money of $2.3 million to the eventual winners of the tournament a huge prize the stakes are high.
Arsenal v ASFAR
Arsenal enter the tournament coming off a inspirational 2-0 defeat of Chelsea in the FAWSL showing the form that won the UWCL in the 2024-25 season when they upset huge favourites Barcelona. A season of mixed form for the Gunners but still a squad of many high class talents. Without disrespecting the opponent ASFAR it can be seen as a game they choose to rotate the squad players given the upcoming period of vital domestic and European matches. We all know the names from Leah Williamson, Beth Mead, Kim Little, Caldentey, Russo, Maanum to Olivia Smith and the fierce competitor Katie McCabe the danger Caitlin Foord brings along with Victoria Pelova, Stina Blackstenius whatever the line up is a huge test for ASFAR.
ASFAR the CAF Women’s Champions League champion for a second time after edging Côte D’ivoire’s ASEC Mimosas 2-1 with a late penalty from Zineb Redouani, however it was another example of the challenge faced by direct speed and running at a highly experienced defence. It is a issue seen at domestic and international level though they have proven on many occasions their resilience to sit in and repouse many attacks particularly when the movement comes from very wide. ASFAR a very proud club as we know many are national team members who were part of Morocco’s run in the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup to the second round. They are a club of great ambition mirroring the association and many others who have been involved in rise of the Women’s game in the country.
ASFAR currently sit second in the league table 4 points behind leaders WAC who they defeated 5-0 in round 11 of the domestic championship. Sanaa Mssoudy 2 60, Zineb Redouani 61, Hanane Aït El Haj 67 Najat Badri 82 lead them to a must win with a powerful performance. However that was followed by a frustrating 2-2 draw with Berkane a game that come at the end of a hectic catch up period.
As we know ASFAR backbone starts with the keeper a highly regarded Khadija Er-rmichi, with Zineb Redouani a great talent and capable of excellent strikes to. Anissa Lahmari was brought in at the start of the season to bolster the midfield to play along with the highly rated Doha El Madani CAF Young player of the year for the last two years. Sanaa Mssoudy retains her form a much better year in 2025. The likes of Safa Banouk, Aït lá Haj, Badri all capable threat, Zineb Redouani to go with Fatima Tagnaout who recently returned to the starting line up after missing large periods since her return to the club and still to show that form we know she is capable of. Another addition was Sofia Bouftini highly regarded in the national youth set up a member of the Morocco u23 also still to realize the potential.
Whatever the final outcome it is a proud moment for ASFAR and Moroccan Women’s Football whose momentum has gained rapidly in the last few years, a improvement in the standard of the league play which has been a joy to watch over the last seven years particularly thanks to the work of great local journalist who provided Transmissions of which now can be seen on Fifa plus mostly along as usual Arryadia’s live coverage of certain games we have seen over the past few years.
