Cameroon’s Indomitable Lionesses are on the verge of harvesting yet another quarterfinal ticket at the FIFA Women’s World Cup today.
The 2015 quarterfinalists rub shoulders with England at 4:30pm later today.
Cameroon qualified to the round of 16 after a hard earned 2-1 victory against New Zealand on match day three.
The head coach of the Lionesses, Alain Djeumfa has acknowledged England is a better side but mentains his girls are set for this evening’s duel.
During a pre-match conference in Valenciennes Saturday, sensational defender Esther Johnson also promised the team would put on a good game.
The Lionesses count on the expertise of Ajara Nchout and Gabrielle Onguene in their fourth outing of the tournament.
The 26-year-old Ajara neted in two goals to qualify Cameroon to this stage of the 2019 Women’s World Cup in France.
The Queen’s team is a better side tonight given that they have won all their three groups stage games in the ongoing Female Football show piece.
However, they are seemingly a lesser opponent for Cameroon compared to USA and France who have better performances in the competition.
This Sunday’s confrontation between Cameroon and England is reminiscent of the July 1, 1990 controversial
Men’s Quarterfinal World Cup meeting which ended 3-2 in favour of the English side.
Expectations are that, today’s encounter should be void of biased decisions from the referee, as many say was the case 29 years ago with the male teams.
