The 1986 WAFU Club Championship was the ninth football club tournament season that took place for the runners-up of each West African country's domestic league, the West African Club Championship. It was won again by Africa Sports after defeating Asante Kotoko from Ghana 6–5 in penalty shootouts as both clubs had two goals each in its two matches. [1] A total of 45 goals were scored. Originally a 22 match season, as Sierra Leone's Real Republicans and ASC Police from Nouakchott, Mauritania withdrew, Asante Kotoko and Université du Benin FC (or University of Benin FC) automatically qualify in the quarterfinals.
