Dragon football club of Yaounde has become the first team to be relegated from the MTN ELITE ONE championship for the 2022/23 season.

The Yaounde-based club will play in the second tier next season after succumbing to a 3-0 to Group B leaders, Bamboutous Of Mbouda. The defeat means Dragon is now 12 points from the 9th spot with three games left.

Relegated! Dragon Club of Yaounde is the First to Go Down!

A hat-trick for Bamboutous man Junior Kemajou brought the decade-long stay of Dragon De Yaounde to an End. It will now be time for the Management, Coaching Staff, and Players of a Club that has made almost ten years in the top Division to reflect on a dismal campaign that has seen a league-lowest one win in 17 games.

Dragon’s season by numbers after 17 games:

Lowest wins in the league: 1
The lowest goals scored in Group B:16
Highest number of losses in the league:10

How Many Teams are to be Relegated?

This season will see four Clubs relegated from the MTN ELITE ONE championship, two from each Group.

What Next for Dragon Club of Yaounde?

Up next for Dragon is a dead rubber game against Union of Douala on 9th April before facing potential relegation candidates Yafoot on 16th April. They round off the season in a decisive match for AS Fortuna, also at risk of the drop.

Dragon Of Yaounde will hope they can round off the football season on a high by putting together a cup run, which is now their only remaining shot at Glory!
