Cameroon has had its fair share of bad decisions or unjust turnarounds.
Just look recently - why does it always seem to hurt the African teams?:
2014 Evra bearhugs Odemwingie - no penalty
2018 Ekong bearhugs Kramaric - penalty

All of Africa's hopes now on Senegal...
BTW Europe is having a massive World Cup. The only loss is by Germany, while the draws are Iceland vs Argentina and Switzerland vs Brasil, so its like wins for them.

All the african teams haven't conceded goals from open play. Seems like we are $#% at defending set pieces in Africa.

Yep. And we were complaining about 48, not knowing how 32 has afforded us a chance to waste everybodies time.

Guys,
Have you considered that Ramadan may have played a role. Egypt,Tunisia, conceded late goals. So did Morocco but it was against another majoritarily muslim country. If these guys were fasting, they may not have come to the tournament 100% fit. Just saying.

Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Maybe they should keep the African contingents permanent with current representatives. There won't be any future needs to ask for more.

I am afraid of that 48 teams WC. Some African nations will consistently take 5 goals or more.

If these guys were fasting for Allah, then Allah should have made it possible for then to play 90min at 100%
