FT Cameroon 1-0 Brazil: A famous win for the Indomitable Lions not enough!
Heartbreak for Cameroon in the end, although at no point were they ever in a qualification spot.
In many ways, Rigobert Song's game plan worked to perfection. Stay in the game until late on and then throw bodies forward in an attempt to snatch a winning goal. That's exactly how things played out, with Vincent Aboubakar's superb header sealing a famous victory for the Indomitable Lions. His sending off for a second booking after taking his shirt off in celebration didn't cost his team in the end.
​​​​​​​Brazil will wonder how they lost this game as they were on the front foot for most of it and looked dangerous on the flanks, with Gabriel Martinelli in particular going close on a number of occasions. A combination of poor decision-making, slack final passes and wayward finishing cost them a victory and even, in the end, a draw. Would things have gone differently for Brazil if something meaningful had been on the line? We'll never know but Tite's starting line-up certainly would've been vastly different.
Brazil, already through to the round of 16 before this game, win the group on goal difference from Switzerland, while Cameroon go home with their heads held high and will never forget the night they defeated A Seleção.
