World Cup Favorites #20: Cameroon

Eh! The Indomitable Lions are ROARING back onto the World Cup stage! Cameroon has one of the most glorious World Cup histories in African football — from Roger Milla's legendary dances in 1990 to Samuel Eto'o's dominance in 2014. Now, André-Frank Zambo Anguissa brings Napoli class to the midfield and this squad is hungry to prove that Cameroon is STILL the kings of African football. The Lions are coming!

Manager: Marc Brys Key Players: André-Frank Zambo Anguissa, Karl Toko Ekambi, Nicolas Moumi Ngamaleu FIFA Ranking: ~50th


The Squad

  • André-Frank Zambo Anguissa is a Champions League-calibre midfielder at Napoli who dominates the middle of the park with power and skill
  • Cameroon's World Cup pedigree is unmatched in Africa — they were the first African team to reach the quarter-finals in 1990
  • Karl Toko Ekambi brings Ligue 1 goal-scoring experience and movement that can trouble any defensive line
  • The Indomitable Lions' physical power and athleticism make them one of the most challenging teams to play against in the tournament
  • Marc Brys has brought European tactical discipline to complement Cameroon's natural talent and fighting spirit

The Verdict

Cameroon at the World Cup is ALWAYS entertaining! The Indomitable Lions play with passion, power, and unpredictability. They might beat Brazil one day and lose to a minnow the next. That's what makes them so exciting! If the stars align, don't be surprised to see the Lions dancing past the group stage!


Tomorrow: #19 — Stay tuned for the next World Cup favourite!
