Cameroon goalkeeper Michaely Bihina produced a remarkable performance as the Indomitable Lionesses defeated hosts Morocco on penalties to reach the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) final.
The 22-year-old was the heroine in a dramatic semi-final in Rabat, making a crucial save in extra time before stopping three more penalties in the shootout.
With the match still goalless in the 118th minute, Morocco were awarded a penalty, but Bihina kept out Fatima Tagnaout’s effort from 12 yards to keep Cameroon alive.
Neither side could find a breakthrough before the final whistle, sending the contest into a penalty shootout after 120 minutes of action.
Bihina then delivered again, brilliantly saving attempts from Kenza Chappelle, Maryame Atiq and Sakina Ouzraoui as the hosts struggled from the spot.
