Madeleine Michèle Ngono Mani Epse Ongueme (born 16 October 1983), known as Madeleine Ngono Mani,^[1] is a Cameroonian football striker currently playing for Albi Croix in the French second tier. She is a member of the Cameroonian national team, with which she has played the 2012 Summer Olympics, the African Women's Championship, and the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup.^{[citation needed]}

Her career started with Lorema FC and Canon Yaoundé, winning the domestic cup and league twice each in Cameroon .^[3] After the domestic success, she joined RC Saint-Étienne in 2003, then in the fourth tier of French football. The team merged with AS Saint-Étienne in 2009, after their exploits leading them to the top level of French football, in no small part due to Ngono Mani's goal-scoring abilities. She then joined ASJ Soyaux and became one of their leading goal scorers in the second division. She turned professional by joining Guingamp in 2011^[3] following a brief spell with FCF Monteux.^[4] She moved to Claix in 2013 after a fruitful two years with Guingamp.^[5] In 2015, she transferred to FC Minsk, with quite lucrative terms.^[6][7][8]

For the 2016–17 she moved to Aurillac Arpajon, in the French second tier.^[9] In 2018 she plays for Albi Croix.^[10]

She debuted in the World Cup qualifier against South Africa in 2002, in a 2–1 loss.^[11] In the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom, she played all three matches of the group stage of the women's football tournament, but the team did not manage to gain a single point and failed to qualify for the following round. She played a key role in Cameroon's campaign in the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, scoring a header to complete a comeback win against Switzerland,^[12] as well as scoring in the 6–0 rout of Ecuador.^[13] She is also the top scorer of the national team.^[6]
