...in the quarter finals
that is the new twist i got from my cousin who called about ten minutes ago.
he says we should not fear that statistics show that we have lost to Cameroon three times in the final and never in the quarters and that the last time he remembers us not meeting Camerron in the final was in senegal in 1992 when we met in the third place match and we beat them.
According to him we will win.

To be honest i am not very confident in the present team...at ANC 2000 i had all confidence in that team and we still got whooped....we dont have half the calibre of players we had in ANC 2000 but cameroon definately do...we are going to a quater final match with strikers who are yet to score...some of our strikers havent scored in 3 tourneys...if we beat cameroon i will be pleasantly suprised...

Forget all those old wives's tales. This is a new begining, the better team with minimal errors and better finishing ratio, (scoring chances conversion) will win the game. I'm staying low profile so I won't have to destroy my T.V

I hope Eguavon and co., continue to tinker with the line to give us the optimal line up as done in the last two games......

If they let Clueless Christian get this one we're domed..

Ikwereman I got hit you soon for pm.

Before the tournament started, I would have said Cameroon would whoop Nigeria 3-0 but now I am not so sure. I have noticed the following lapses with the Indomitable Lions:

(1) Djemba-Djemba gives the ball away to the opposition all afternoon whenever he attempts to make a pass.
(2) Kameni has flapped at quite a few crosses
(3) Mettomo and Song struggled against Algeria and Zimbabwe and are vulnerable whenever the ball is flighted.
(4) There is no pace in the Cameroonian central defence
(5) Lucien Mettomo makes a lot of errant passes
(6) Against Egpyt, Cameroon only kept a clean sheet because the midfield quartet sat deep alongside the defence. This negated the team as an attacking outfit.
(7) Samuel Eto'oo appears to be another one who cannot score to save his life. If Mboma is man marked out of the game, the Lions have a big problem.
(8) Egypt made sure that whenever Geremi got the ball they closed him down quickly and prevented him whipping crosses in. If you do that, you cut of Cameroon's most vital supply line.
(9) Down the left, Cameroon have huge problems. Tchato makes rash challenges, Idrissou is utterly hopeless and Atouba also gives away needless fouls.
(10)Cameroon cannot attack and defend at the same time. They have to do either at the moment.

Records are there to be broken; Nigeria has never lost to Cameroon in the q/f; then again neither has Cameroon lost to Nigeria in the q/f;
