The World Cup did not bring lot’s of success for the nation. Rather, it piled controversies with Inter Milan keeper, Andre Onana eventually announcing his retirement from international football following some disagreements with the management. Cameroon will be hoping that they can come out of that phase and bounce back in style.
Congo, too haven’t enjoyed the best of times recently. They have earned just a solitary victory in their last six outings along with a draw and four defeats. The win came in their last match against Gambia by a narrow 1-0 margin. Congo, certainly face an uphill task in trying to match Cameroon but they will be confident to put themselves beyond their limits and try to earn a much needed opening day result.
Bayern Munich striker, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is a major doubt for the game for Cameroon due to illness. His absence could be a key factor in deciding the result of the fixture. As for Congo, there are reportedly no injury issues.
