USFA's win clears way for Bénin side in West B semi-finals
USFA's 5‑0 triumph over ASKO du Togo not only secures the Burkina Faso side's place in the CAF Champion League WAFU West B semi‑finals but also guarantees a spot for Bénin's Dynamique FC, setting up a high‑stakes showdown on 2 September.
Stéphanie Sow lifted her arms after the third strike, joined by Charlotte Millogo, as USFA pressed on. Their celebration marked the turning point in a match that ended 5‑0.
USFA topped group A, emerging as the clear leader. In group B, Nigéria's EDO Queens finished second with six points, earning the right to face the Burkinabé champions.
Other semi‑finalists confirmed
AMPEM Darkoa Ladies, often referred to simply as Ampem, claimed the top spot in group B, while Bénin's FC Dynamique secured qualification after USFA's dominant win over ASKO du Togo. The Beninese side’s progress was described as miraculous by observers.
The large victory of USFA, 5‑0 against ASKO, proved essential for the Bénin team’s entry into the last four. Without that result, Dynamique FC would have missed the semi‑finals.
The semi‑finals are scheduled for Wednesday 02 September 2026. It is the regional edition of the Ligue Champions organised by CAF. USFA will meet Nigéria's EDO Queens, and AMPEM Darkoa Ladies will clash with FC Dynamique.
Fans can expect intense battles as the CAF Champion League WAFU West B reaches its climax, with both semi‑finals promising memorable football. The outcomes will decide the representatives for the final tournament later in the year.
