Cameroon coach Rigobert Song was delighted with his players’ performance against Gambia.

Cameroon achieved a spectacular upset against Gambia (3-2) on Tuesday evening in the African Cup of Nations, thus ensuring their qualification for the round of 16. The Indomitable Lions demonstrated remarkable resilience to win in the final moments.

Trailing 2-1 until the 87th minute, Rigobert Song’s men reversed the trend when James Gomez scored against his side, followed by Christophe Wooh’s saving goal (90th+1).

” It is not finished yet “

The Cameroonian coach was naturally delighted with this qualification, declaring at a press conference: “I slip, but I never fall. »

And added: “You even see that I no longer have a voice because it’s too much emotion. I am satisfied with the performance of my players. We had to do everything to take the three points, no matter how we were going to play, but we had to be able to take them and it was done. Not easy, but the objective was achieved and it’s not over yet. »

The five-time African champions will face Nigeria in the next round on January 27.
