Togo D1 Finale: Championship, Relegation Battles Set for Dramatic Final Day
After several weeks of suspension, Togo’s first-division national championship returns for a decisive final round this Sunday, November 2, with Matchday 22 promising intense action at both ends of the table.
🏆 Title Race: Sémassi on the Brink
Current leaders Sémassi (39 points) enter the final day two points ahead of reigning champions Anges FC (37 points). The club from Tchaoudjo faces a potentially tricky away match against Agaza, while Anges FC hosts Dyto, a team still fighting for top-flight survival.
Victory for Sémassi would secure the championship, regardless of Anges’ result. A draw or defeat could open the door for Anges to retain their title, should they win.
⚠️ Relegation Battle: Who Joins AS Douanes?
AS Douanes (12th, 18 pts) is already confirmed relegated to D2, but the second relegated team remains unknown. Four clubs are in danger:
Unisport (11th, 24 pts) – hosts AS Togo Port
Gbikinti (10th, 25 pts) – away at ASKO
Maranatha (9th, 27 pts) – plays AS Douanes
Dyto (position not given, but threatened) – travels to Anges FC
Results from these fixtures will determine who survives the drop.
