Horoya AC have reclaimed their place at the summit of Guinean football, clinching the national championship on Thursday, June 19, 2025, and ending a two-year wait for domestic glory.
The Matam-based club needed just a single point to secure the title heading into their 23rd matchday fixture and delivered accordingly, holding Flamme Olympique to a 1-1 draw on home soil.
The result moves Horoya AC to 49 points—ten clear of their closest challengers—with only three matches remaining in the season, rendering them mathematically uncatchable.
It marks a triumphant return to dominance for Guinea’s most decorated club after two seasons of uncharacteristic underachievement.
Horoya, known for their consistent excellence in domestic competition, had faced growing scrutiny over their ability to maintain their stronghold on the national game.
This campaign, however, they have answered all questions with authority.
The decisive fixture at home was less about spectacle and more about sealing the outcome of a season-long mission.
With the draw, Horoya not only extended their unbeaten streak but also confirmed their supremacy in a league they have historically controlled.
This latest triumph takes their league title count to 21, placing them well ahead of their nearest historical rivals, Hafia FC, who hold 16 titles, followed by AS Kaloum.
The 2024–25 season has seen Horoya demonstrate consistency and resilience, reasserting their place as the dominant force in Guinean football.
Despite moments of pressure and the rise of emerging challengers, the club’s experience, tactical discipline, and individual quality ensured they maintained their lead in the standings throughout the critical stages of the campaign.
Horoya AC’s resurgence will be viewed as a statement of intent not just domestically, but also on the continental stage, where the club has been a regular representative in CAF competitions.
Securing the league title early allows them to begin planning for the next chapter, with ambitions likely extending beyond Guinea’s borders.
With their 21st national title now confirmed, Horoya AC further solidifies its status as a powerhouse in West African football and sets a formidable benchmark for others to follow in the seasons ahead.
