Cameroon beat Namibia 2–0 with first-half double in Douala

Cameroon secured a 2–0 home victory over Namibia in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Thursday, November 12, scoring both goals before the half-hour mark.

Saidou Alioum Moubarak opened the scoring in the 16th minute. Bil Nsongo added the second in the 29th, leaving Namibia with a two-goal deficit to chase for the remainder of the contest.

The match was staged at Japoma in Douala, the venue identified in the Cameroon federation’s official pre-match programme.

No further goals followed, giving Cameroon a clean sheet alongside the three points. For Namibia, the early damage proved decisive: they were unable to reduce the deficit before full-time.

The result leaves Cameroon with a clear positive from the November window. Their first-half finishing established the platform for the win, and preserving the advantage ensured that the early lead translated into a completed result.
