The Red Devils of Congo are set to take on the Wild Beasts of the Central African Republic at 1 PM local time, while the other semi-final features the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon against the Panthers of Gabon at 4 PM.
The Olembe Stadium in Yaoundé is the venue for both semi-finals of the U20 Tournament of the Central African Football Federations Union (Uniffac). The schedule includes two thrilling matches. The first clash will see the Red Devils of Congo go head-to-head with the Wild Beasts of the Central African Republic.
In their group, Central Africa secured the second spot due to a superior goal difference. After a draw against Chad (1-1), the Central Africans were defeated by Cameroon (2-0), which ultimately allowed them to keep their qualification hopes alive. They face a Congo team eager to bring home the trophy.
In the day's second match, the U20 Lions are favored against a Gabon team that qualified through a drawing of lots. During the group stage, Cameroon posted an impressive record with two victories, scoring five goals while conceding none.
The stakes for both matches are incredibly high. The two winners will not only advance to the final but also secure their spot in the upcoming U20 Africa Cup of Nations, scheduled for next year.
