It's a big event! RCB is going through a very tough phase this season.

Burkina Faso: Racing Club de Bobo secures its fourth win of the season
In the opening match of the twenty-second round of the Burkinabè Premier League (Fasofoot Ligue 1), Racing Club de Bobo-Dioulasso clinched a 1-0 victory over ASFA Yennega. With this win, the Bobo-based club finally ended a run of eight matches without a single victory.
The situation for RCB is extremely critical. This storied club from Bobo-Dioulasso is enduring a difficult spell and is desperately seeking positive results. On Sunday, Racing overcame ASFA Yennega with a solitary goal, marking only their fourth win in 22 league rounds this season.
Three coaches in one season.
This victory is credited to coach Amba Ouédraogo, who took charge of the Tigers at the end of February, succeeding Bambara Albert, who himself had replaced Ivorian Soualiho Coulibaly. That makes the current boss the third coach to lead RCB this season.
The goal: survival!
With Abass Ouédraogo at the helm, RCB launched their "fight for survival" campaign. Sunday's win gave them a chance to temporarily move off the bottom of the table. With 11 defeats in 22 rounds, the Tigers have only 19 points—just one more than promoted sides AJEB and EFO, who each have 18. The hopefuls from Bobo-Dioulasso will play SC Majestic on March 9, while the Queens of the Stadium face RCK on Tuesday.
