Cameroon fall to Mexico 1 – 0

In what was perhaps a gripping and sometimes controversial match between the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon and the North American side of Mexico, reports Zambian Eye Sports Journalist.

The end told it all…..Mexico 1 -0 Cameroon!

The match saw Oribe Peralta score in the 61st minute after two goals were controversially disallowed by match officials. The Lions who could have done a lot to put Africa’s stamp on the competition seemed outgunned by the Mexicans.

The Lions who got 10 shots against Mexico’s 9 only managed 4 shots on target against Mexico’s 5. The Mexicans dominated ball possession with 58% against the 42% of Mexico.

The teams both walked away with a yellow card each. The infectious enthusiasm played in driving rain at the Estádio das Dunas, Natal in Brazil showcased the raw nature of supporter commitment.
