MFM needed an outright victory with a large margin to stand a chance of qualifying as one of the third-best losers, but they could not hold their ground.


The game lived up to its expectations as the Cameroonians took an early lead, winning the first quarter by a margin of 10 points, 22-12.


The Nigerian team fought back in the second quarter but lost narrowly 17-16, with FAP leading by 11 points at halftime.


The game became closer in the third quarter, ending 12-12, with the Nigerian team trailing by an 11-point deficit.


MFM fought and won the fourth quarter with a nine-point margin, 20-11, but could not overcome the 11-point deficit from halftime.


FAP now awaits the results from Group B and Group C to know their fate in qualifying as one of the third-best losers.


MFM will only play classification games, as their bid to win the 2024 Women’s Basketball League Africa is over after losing all three of their group matches.


The WBLA is the elite basketball competition for the 12 best teams on the continent, with the winner crowned the best African Women’s Basketball team of the year.
