Very disappointing loss! And why the hell is Ghana leading the way? Ghana should qualify for the next round. At least, I have my fingers crossed that they do Africa needs more world cup spots so the further an African country goes in this world cup the better for all of Africa. |

Nigerians don't do Jealous. Jealousy is a quantity much frowned upon by many of the ethnicity in our country. He just probably trying to make a political statement. |

@Litmus, Wow! And why shouldn't it be Ghana? This Ghana bashing must stop!!! What is the problem here, ? Are we seriously saying that Nigerians are that spiteful and petty, that a victory for Ghana is somehow a bad thing for Nigeria? Why should everything be about Nigerians!!! Someone other than Nigeria takes the spotlight and there is trouble. These comments should not be featured here for any reason. Whether it is one amongst many positive comments (which I am grateful for) or not, it still reflects badly on Nigerians. If you are good, fair-minded people, prove it. I've always thought that the rivalry between Ghana and Nigeria was healthy and that we rooted for each other. Now, I know that I was wrong. Ghana is doing well, Nigeria is not - so far, get over it. |

I would really blame the coach for how badly Cameroon played:No, not a thing. I'll add this: Eto'o is finished as a striker if he continues this winger nonsense whether for club or country. As an aside, are these boys having too much fun with the South African hotties? Surely, they looked tired and unfocused and after the rubbish I saw today Nigeria's performance is starting to look even better. Unbelievable! |

I STILL CANT BELIEVE IT. MAY BE CAMEROON UNDER ESTIMATED THIS JAPANESE DATS WHY DEY TOOK DEM UNAWARES. AHHH GOD WHY DID DIS HAPPEN? |

CarlosVent: Africans need to learn discipline and diligence. Nigeria fell to Paraguay and Denmark in 1998 for the very same reason. After we beat Spain in our first game, our heads swelled so much that we lost both matches by wide margins: 3-1 to Paraguay and 4-1 to Denmark. I hope we don't underestimate Greece and South Korea in subsequent matches. |

With all the African team i have watched so, i still believe Nigerian played a better game against Argentina more than what i have seen so far. Nigerian Argentina Game even still remain one of the best game in this tournament so far. I cant wait for 17th to see my boys shut-up all the haterz in this forum. |

I quite agree that the manager shoulders the blame for this loss. . . . but in fairness to him, this Cameroonian team is in tatters - even Jose Mourinho would find it a mammoth task making winners outta this team. Changing the goalie is forgivable, knowing Kameni, he's probably done something in camp to ire the manager. . . . leaving Alex song out - inexplicable and playing Moting as the main striker - logical but unwise. I can understand the choice of Webo but not as a wing-man. Webo should have been the main forward. Webo made a strong case for himself in the qualifiers & friendlies with decent performances even though he was a substitute in most of those games. Eto'o is equally not unfamiliar with playing on the wing as he does it a lot for Inter and even at Barca. It is no secret, the Cameroonian side do not have a significant creative midfielder, Alex is probably the closest to that - Emana is a forward and not a midfielder - in fact, it'd be criminal to play him in that position. Same apllies for Ngouemo & Makoun. They also do not have pacey, tricky wingers either hence having to take a gamble with Eto'o there. There's experience in abundance on the bench - Idrissou, Geremi, Rigobert, Ngouemo. . . . but a definite lack of pace and creativity; Idrissou being the most useful in the attacking sense for his aerial prowess. When I really ponder over it, sympathes should go to Le Guen, he is currently working with a squad thats very lean on resources and absolutely short on talent. Maybe he was hoping for some form of flexibility, imagination and inventiveness from his forward-men (inter-change of positions and movement off the ball - if you notice, they rarely ever do that making their play rigid) Maybe in years to come, the younger generation will step-up and produce the goods but this current side is just rubbish! |

RuuDie: First of all Cameroon should be playing with two strikers up front and 4 men in midfield. They lost the game in midfield with the three DMs packed so close together that they had no room for manouveur. They really should have played wider out. Up front they will do better if they have two strikers closely working with each other in Eto'o and Webo or Choupo Moting. No matter how mediocre Alex Song plays he ALWAYS brings stability to the midfield. Cameroon CAN NOT play WITHOUT Song. And it's been like that since 2008. Dropping him to the bench is unfathomable. Eto'o does play on the wing for club, but at Barca he was mainly a pushed up striker and that's when he worked best. He is second to none in offside traps and running down the man. In order to do that you need to be closer to the center. On his right wing Eto'o can't lead the team, he would even do much better as a '10'. And I think we can all agree that whilst playing rightwing at Inter he has not been a match winner. But notice that almost every time he is played up front he scores goals! You say Emana is a forward and not a midfielder. But you are wrong. He is a midfielder and has always been a midfielder. He is almost never played as a striker for club in 10 years of club football. He is a typical '10' that is played just behind the strikers. I understand people mistake him for a striker, because he scores so many goals for his club, but he does that from an attacking midfielder position. Makoun is a box-to-box midfielder and is better played higher up. He is not and never should be played as the deep defensive midfielder. N'guemo is an central midfielder often played as defensive midfielder, but he does just fine played higher up and has enough creativity to create chances. Geremi - lack of creativity I'm sorry, but I believe Cameroon started going downhill under Le Guen the moment he benched Geremi, who is the king of creativity, a great winger and decent right back. Also he may not be the paciest RB, but he still has some impressive legs. You could also add that one of the most creative midfielders in the Cameroon squad is Stephane Mbia, who has been playing as a CB all season long for OM. Still the moment he pushed up and went in midfield he had Cameroon's best chance on goal. I agree that Cameroon lack in creativity, but that's why Geremi, Emana, Eto'o and Song SHOULD ALWAYS START! Because THEY ARE CREATIVE. The problem with Cameroon is not that they lack talent - almost every single player on the Cameroonian bench is extremely talented. Problem is that there are too few players which you could call 'gamechangers' (Geremi, Eto'o, Assou-Ekotto and Emana for now) and that too many players in midfield are just too similar to each other - it's hard to differentiate one midfielder from another. |

marutimon:Wow i thought Paul le Guen was a good coach, what a way to prove me wrong. |
Re: World Cup 2010: Japan Vs Cameroun [1 - 0] On Monday June 14th 2010 by davidif: 9:32am On Jun 15, 2010 |
I CAN'T BELIEVE THE JAPANESE WON THIS GAME!!! EXCELLENT GAME BY THE JAPANESE, WISH THEM WELL THROUGHOUT THE TOURNAMENT. WHAT AN AWFUL, AWFUL COACH PAUL LE GUEN IS. |
Re: World Cup 2010: Japan Vs Cameroun [1 - 0] On Monday June 14th 2010 by marutimon: 10:26am On Jun 15, 2010 |
I actually initially was head over heels about Le Guen. Does anyone remember the first 4 qualifiers under Le Guen? Cameroon played beautiful, scintillating football. I.e. their game against Morocco was just perfect - total control and almost German like efficiency in creating chances. But it's been all bad since the African Cup of Nations. Hopefully they'll pick up like they did after the Gabon game and still progress. It's still very likely: Holland wins over Japan and guarantees themselves the second round. Cameroon win over Denmark. Denmark win over Japan and than goal difference will count as to who progresses. |

I think lack of proper preparation cost Camerron this game,but my gut tell me they'll make it through they've got enough quality and the right mix of experience and youth. I know that atleast four African countries will make it to the last 16. |
