Medeama Edge Past ASSEC Mimosas in Friendly
Medeama claimed a 2-1 victory over ASSEC Mimosas in a club friendly on Tuesday, August 12th, 2026. The Ivorian side came into the fixture having tasted defeat just four days earlier against SOA, while their hosts were enjoying a patchy run of results at home.
ASSEC Mimosas had shown flashes of promise in recent weeks, picking up wins against ISCA and San-Pedro. However, they had also suffered losses to Olympique Sport d'Abobo and Bouake, and drew with Zoman. The form suggested a team still finding its rhythm.
Medeama's recent record looked stronger on paper. They had beaten Basake Holy Stars twice in different results and put five past Hearts U21. The loss to SOA on August 8th was the only blemish in their last five outings, and they came looking to bounce back.
The match itself produced a result that reflected the difference in form between the two sides. Medeama held their nerve to secure the win, while ASSEC Mimosas could only manage a consolation goal in what was a competitive encounter from start to finish.
The result gives Medeama something positive to build on after their recent defeat. For ASSEC Mimosas, it was another friendly to evaluate before the competitive season gets underway properly.
