Song sings of a bright future for Cameroon despite early Qatar exit

The Indomitable Lions needed to beat a Brazil side mostly made up of reserves and hope that Serbia could overcome Switzerland, but the Swiss won 3-2 to grab second spot in Group G behind the Brazilians to knock Cameroon out.

“It's a real shame that we have to go home now, but you need to look on the bright side. We need to keep working and keep moving, I trust in my players,” coach Rigobert Song told a postgame media conference. Vincent Aboubakar scored a superb header in second-half stoppage time before getting sent off for collecting a second yellow card during his wild celebration of the goal that gave Cameroon their first win at the World Cup since beating Saudi Arabia in 2002.

🇨🇲 Cameroon is a great team in world But the lack of discipline and courage let them down. Cameroon can beat any team in the world 🤞.
