The Cameroon Football Federation, and the National team coach, are targeting two wins against Nigeria to stand a chance of qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
Fécafoot stated in a press release that: “In order to maintain a positive record on the performances of our various national teams, only one goal is needed: to shine in Gabon and to win both matches against Nigeria.”
The Indomitable Lions played against Zambia on match day two in theWorld Cup qualifiers, and are not satisfied with the 1-1 draw. They had also begun the qualifying campaign with a 1-1 draw at Algeria, and with the two points from both games, they are now placed second in
Group B.
After the game against Zambia, the Cameroon Coach Hugo Broos said:
“Despite the timorous performance today against Zambia, senior LIC are fully aware of the issues and their determination will lead them to victory.
“Before this match, we already knew that the matches against Nigeria will be decisive.
“We will have to win to have another chance to go to the World Cup. We have eight months to prepare.”
It’s worthy of note however that Cameroon have qualified for the World Cup seven times, and were the first African country to reach the quarterfinals in 1990.
