Kumba City FC, previously the only undefeated team in MTN Elite Two, had their streak of five consecutive victories broken. The team hosted Avion Academy for a rescheduled match of the 6th day at the Kumba Municipal Stadium.
Nicolas Tonye's squad displayed a solid offensive setup, favoring long balls, and demonstrated good organization on the field. After a tight start to the match, the battle for control of the midfield intensified. Just before halftime, in the 44th minute, Jerome Mboma overcame Kumba City's goalkeeper, Gustave Onana, scoring the only goal of the first half.
In the second half, Kumba City's coach, Mbaboh Moses, attempted to readjust his strategy to come back and preserve his team's invincibility. However, Luc Bakinde and his Avion Academy teammates managed to maintain their lead until the final whistle. Despite this defeat, Kumba City remains at the top of Group B with 15 points.
Avion Academy will face Bafmeng United on March 14, 2026. Kumba City had defeated Bafmeng United 1-0 on January 31, 2026.
