Fifa says it is "currently looking into" Cameroon's behaviour during their World Cup last-16 defeat by England.

It comes after an African football chief said it "reflected badly on African football".

England's 3-0 victory on Sunday was marred by Cameroon's reaction to two video assistant referee decisions and poor challenges on England's players.

A Fifa spokesperson told BBC Sport: "further updates will be provided in due course".

Earlier on Monday, Isha Johansen, chair of the Confederation of African Football's women's football committee, said she wanted an investigation to be opened.

Johansen, who is also the president of the Sierra Leone Football Association, told BBC Sport it was an "embarrassing situation".

In a statement, she said: "Whilst remaining proud of our African teams that participated in the Fifa Women's World Cup, yesterday's match between England and Cameroon reflected badly, not only on African women's football but African football on the whole.

"It is an issue which will be addressed and dealt with at the appropriate levels of governance."

There was an on-pitch protest by Cameroon's players after England's second goal, scored by Ellen White, was awarded by VAR.

Cameroon were also visibly upset when, with the score at 2-0, Ajara Nchout's goal was ruled out for offside by VAR.

They were fortunate to finish the game with 11 players on the pitch after Yvonne Leuko was booked for an apparent elbow on England winger Nikita Parris, Augustine Ejangue spat on Toni Duggan and Alexandra Takounda was shown a yellow card for a late challenge on captain Steph Houghton in stoppage time.

Johansen told BBC Sport: "Clearly when something happens like what happened yesterday, the disappointment that we saw on the pitch, we as Africans felt for Cameroon as a family, as one.

"We take the collective blame, but at the same time, without sounding like we are condoning what happened, I think it's all about now actually understanding why it happened.

"These are the issues that I think CAF has got to address and will address, clearly so we can avoid the same mistakes happening."

Speaking after the match, England boss Phil Neville said he was "ashamed" by Cameroon's behaviour, adding it "didn't feel like football".

But Cameroon coach Alain Djeumfa blamed the referee in his post-match news conference, saying the match was a "miscarriage of justice".

Make FIFA go rest jor, the Cameroonians were robbed. They were right to protest

They want to look into their behaviour instead of screening the match. Lolz

Don't just go for one when you have the capacity to take ten, even a hundred. Your business needs persistent shining. Get a website/blog/software for your business, ideas and passion today.

Na so

Thank God I wasn't there live, I saw the replays and I was very embarrassed...very unprofessional display to the world, now see how they are roping the whole of Africa...

But they won't investigate if it's otherwise.

Football no be fight

Fruadulent FIFA, any team that cant buy their stadium tickets are strategically eliminated through VAR. they want to quickly gag cameroon so they wont spoil their business for them, because africans are unpredictable.

They awarded two penalties just to make US win Spain with 2-1 after Spanish Women showed US who the boss-ladies really were


.

Cameroon lost abeg


y did they not score ?

Racism is FIFA; FIFA is Racism

typical African mentality... until we understand we are fighting a battle against ourselves, we would never improve

how would such an hapless Cameroonian team defeat england. same as some folks saying they ganged up against mediocre Nigeria.

Las Las , the case will die down, nothing will happen.

The officiating in the tournament has been awful, and I'm sure FIFA knows it. Something like this was inevitable, as the teams will always protest against terrible officiating. It was just unfortunate that Cameroon was the culprit. If FIFA was that clean, why are they Changing rules in the middle of the tournament if those rules were not flawed.

Las Las the worst thing that Cameroon will get is just a warning letter to their FA.

Okay

That protest was on point.. Next time they will be more careful when dealing with an African team

I don't understand why Africans like to always play the victim, in this particular game, they were wrong, the decisions were right, they were not professional at all.
Imagine the coach telling the players before the match that the referee wants england to win, lol.

Atiku still has not said a word about his fellow countrymen.

VAR has ruined the natural flow of football, las las VAR na scam

Miscarriage of justice ko... Abortion of justice ni.
Has she forgotten football is a game of love? Those acts her players performed will really go a long way for Africa as a whole.

ichidodo:
Its obvious. African Nations were robbed in this World Cup, benefits of doubt were given to the other teams but African teams were penalized for the most innocuous infringements....I guess the fat cats in Fifa never realized that the African girls were up for the fight in this tournament. Nobody come look uche face.

They thought it was business as usual where anything goes. But they didn't know that the Cameroonian ladies came to compete, and not to add up numbers

Robbed with 3 goals??

This reminds me of those days we used to play "choose". If you felt a goal was "ojoro", we boycott play and end the game
Its unfortunate that Africans still carry this kind of mentality to the world stage
I was ashamed as I watched Cameroon players threatening to walk off the pitch cuz of VAR call for offside against them.
It is unacceptable and unprofessional.

I blame atiku bin Camerooni for this uncultured behavior shown by his countrywomen.

Bunch of touts, both males and females.

Naza25:

robbed for where?

Naza25:

The girls almost robbed themselves of their dignity

It was a daylight robbery, Africans should stop going to world cup. We already have our own competition here in Africa. Why going for a tournament when u know will be Robbed. Nigerians were also robbed. Racism is real. We should stop being slave to Whites.

Which Africans felt for Cameroon? definitely not me. Cameroon women behave like animals because they are noting but monkeys
