Cotonsport's 1-0 win over bottom-placed Unisport Bafang in Garoua on Sunday stretched their unbeaten run this season to 13 matches.

Cotonsport lead the standings in pool A

Gustave Bebbe Mbangue's second-half goal extended the defending champions' lead in pool A to 10 points over Sable Batie.

In pool B, Racing Bafoussam lead Canon Yaounde by 10 points after winning 1-0 at home to PWD Bamenda on Sunday.

The current championship is divided into two pools of nine teams.

Petro Atletico increased their lead in the Girabola on Sunday, beating police team InterClube 2-0 in Luanda.

The goals came from Congo international Kapela Mbiyavanga and defender Zeca Langa.

Petro have 27 points from 12 matches and lead second-placed InterClube by four points.

Sunday's match was the only one at the weekend, which was brought forward because of Petro's participation in the African Champions League next weekend.

No other matches were scheduled because Angola's national side, the Palancas Negras, were playing a friendly in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Raja Casablanca are in second place

Royal Armed Forces kept their six-point lead in the first division after drawing 1-1 with second-placed Raja Casablanca in the top-of-the-table clash on Saturday.

Reda Mokhtari put the army side into the lead 10 minutes into the second half, but Mustapha Bidoudane equalised seven minutes from the end to earn Raja the draw.

Both sides have four matches left this season.

ASS Sale moved into third place, behind Raja on goal difference, after a 1-0 win over defending champions Hassania Agadir on Sunday.

ASFA Yennenga won the league title for the third successive year on Sunday after beating army club USFA 3-2 in their penultimate match of the season.

The result left Yennenga with a five-point lead over second placed Etoile Filante.

ASFA Yennenga qualify for next year's Champions League where Burkina Faso are entitled to just one entrant.

Moshoeu's Chiefs are still in the title race

Kaizer Chiefs missed out on a chance to secure their first championship in more than a decade when they failed to beat Santos in Cape Town on Sunday.

However, the goalless draw means Chiefs need just two points from their last two matches to secure the premier league title after second-placed Ajax Cape Town were beaten on Saturday.

Ajax's 2-1 defeat by Moroka Swallows in Johannesburg effectively ended their chances of clinching their first championship.

Wits University, who drew 0-0 at Silver Stars on Sunday, moved within one point of Ajax in the battle for places in next year's African Champions League.

The top two finishers in the South African league qualify for the potentially lucrative competition.

The Premier League season got underway on Sunday after a month of legal wrangling that had delayed its start.

Kotoko kicked off their season with a win

Defending champions Asante Kotoko survived an early scare to beat Brong Ahafo United 4-1 in Kumasi.

The champions conceded an early goal but fought back convincingly with Ghana Olympic team striker Frank Osei netting two goals.

Accra Hearts of Oak recorded a 3-0 victory over Liberty Professionals in their opening game, with two goals coming from captain Emmanuel Osei Kuffour.

Hearts won six successive titles before finishing runners-up last year.

National Assembly opened up a two-point lead at the top of the standings after beating Nkana Red Devils 1-0 on Sunday.

Dennis Makinka's goal increased the side's tally to 16 points, two more than Power Dynamos, who were 1-0 winners at Red Arrows in Lusaka on Sunday.
