With this victory, Nouadhibou not only clinched their 11th top-flight title overall but also extended their unprecedented streak of seven consecutive championships, firmly establishing themselves as the undisputed powerhouse of Mauritanian football.

But for Nouadhibou, there is little time to bask in the glory of their success. With their sights set on even greater challenges, attention quickly turns to the prospect of competing in the prestigious TotalEnergies CAF Champions League next season.
As they prepare to test their mettle against the continent’s elite, Nouadhibou will draw inspiration from their storied legacy of success as they continue to chart a course towards further glory on both domestic and continental fronts.
