  Cameroon are the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) champions after breezing past Malawi 3-0 in Sunday’s final in Rabat, Morocco. The victory resulted in the Indomitable Lionesses’ first-ever continental title. Cameroon and Malawi both reached the tournament decider, writing their own great underdog stories.
