BLIDA, Algeria, July 23 - Cameroon retained the All Africa Games soccer title following a laboured 1-0 victory over Guinea at the Blida stadium, 50 km (30 miles) east of the capital.

The victory gave Cameroon their fourth gold medal at these games which came to a close on Monday at the July 5 Stadium in the capital Algiers. Cameroon finished 10th overall in the medal standings.
