Horoya AC Beats Karfamoriah FC on Penalties to Win WACC 2026

Posted : 23 August 2026

 Horoya AC won the West Africa Champion's Cup 2026 on Saturday, August 22. They beat Karfamoriah FC 5-3 on penalties after a 0-0 draw in regulation. The final was played at the M'Ballou Mady Diakité stadium in Kankan.

The final was an all-Guinean affair. Horoya AC and Karfamoriah FC, both based in Guinea, went head to head for the trophy. Almam Malick Mara, president of the regional football league, called it a great source of pride to see two Guinean clubs reach the final together.

Neither side found a breakthrough in normal time. The match stayed goalless through 90 minutes, and went to a penalty shootout. Horoya AC held their nerve there, winning it 5-3.

The title caps a strong run for Horoya AC. The Guinean champions opened the tournament with a 0-2 loss to Stade Malien de Bamako. They responded with three straight wins to close out the competition: 2-1 over Djoliba AC, 2-1 over FC Diarra, and now the shootout win over Karfamoriah FC in the final.

For Karfamoriah FC, reaching the final was still a remarkable achievement. The club, recently promoted to Guinea's Ligue 1, was playing in its first-ever WACC appearance. They went unbeaten through the group phase: three wins and a draw from four matches, enough to finish top of the standings and secure their spot in the final before a ball was kicked in the shootout.

With this win, Horoya AC claims its second WACC title in five editions of the tournament. It confirms their status as one of the competition's leading clubs. For Karfamoriah FC, a runner-up finish on debut is a strong platform to build on.
