AFCON 2025
Nigeria’s D’Tigress cruised into the semi-finals of the 2025 FIBA Women’s Afrobasket Championship with a commanding 83-47 victory over Cameroon on Thursday night at the Palais des Sports de Treichville.
The reigning champions were in top form, dismantling their quarter-final opponents with clinical execution on both ends of the court. From the opening tip-off, D’Tigress set the tempo and never looked back, overwhelming Cameroon with their pace, defensive intensity, and sharp shooting.
The result not only continues Nigeria’s unbeaten run in Afrobasket play but also moves them one step closer to capturing a record-extending fifth straight title.
Following the match, the team took to X to hail the performance, describing it as one marked by “surgical precision” that left Cameroon reeling.
With momentum clearly on their side, D’Tigress now turn their focus to a tough semi-final test, where they’ll look to further cement their dominance in African women’s basketball and edge closer to another historic triumph.
