Séwé Sport de San Pedro Defeat Asec Mimosas 2-0 to Win Félix Houphouet-Boigny Super Cup
By BBC Sport Africa
In a thrilling encounter on Saturday, Séwé Sport de San Pedro emerged victorious in the 36th edition of the Félix Houphouet-Boigny Super Cup, defeating Asec Mimosas 2-0. The match saw two second-half goals seal the win for Séwé Sport, with Assalé Roger-Claver scoring in the 46th minute and Baudelaine Aka Essis adding another in the 77th minute.
The result served as a reminder of Séwé Sport’s dominance in Ivorian football, with the club once again proving its strength on the domestic stage. Their performance against Asec Mimosas, a club that had reached the final of the CAF Cup, reinforced their position as one of the premier teams in Côte d’Ivoire.
For Alain Gouaméné, the newly appointed coach of Asec Mimosas, it was a disappointing start to his tenure, as his side failed to match Séwé Sport’s intensity and came up short in this prestigious final.
Despite the loss, Asec Mimosas will likely look to regroup and strengthen as they continue their season, but Séwé Sport’s victory solidifies their reputation as the dominant force in the Ivorian championship, further cementing their place at the top of the domestic game.
