After a rare stumble in Matchday 20, all eyes were on the league’s most dangerous attack to see how they would respond. And respond they did – with the kind of firepower that has made them the most feared side in the competition.
It took just 28 minutes for Gazelle to spark into life, smashing home the opener and setting the tone for a dominant afternoon. With relentless pressure and clinical finishing, they doubled their lead just before halftime in the 40th minute, giving Aigle Moungo little hope of a comeback.
After the break, Gazelle kept their foot firmly on the gas. They added a killer third goal in the 76th minute, underlining the sheer depth and brilliance of their forward line. Aigle Moungo managed to salvage some pride with a late strike in the 88th minute, but by then, the damage was long done.
The final whistle confirmed a resounding 3-1 win for Gazelle FC – a statement performance from a team hungry for silverware.
League Table Impact:
Gazelle FC climb to 41 points, slashing the gap to league leaders Colombe Sportive and keeping their title dreams very much alive.
Aigle Royal du Moungo remain on 23 points in 10th place. While they stay in mid-table safety, today’s defeat highlights the growing gulf between the league’s elite and the chasing pack.
Once again, Gazelle's strike force showed why they are the nightmare of every MTN Elite One defense. With the title race heating up and no room for error, this was a timely reminder that Gazelle FC are not going anywhere quietly.
