Cameroon wins. Brazil trembles despite the defeat to win the group.

Lazy and listless Brazilians let themselves be beaten by Cameroon in added time. Vincent Aboubakar scores the 1-0 in the 92nd minute.

The Cameroonians created a great chance in the first half, which the Swiss failed to do against the stronger Brazilian team. Brazil’s second goalkeeper, Ederson, had to neutralize a header from Brentford legionnaire Bryan Mbeumo with a brilliant save in added time. As soon as the second half began, Vincent Aboubakar came close to making it 1-0 for Cameroon.

After Cameroon’s elimination despite beating the five-times world champion, Jean-Pierre Nsame will return to Bern without having played a minute at the World Cup.

The Brazilians played as if they wanted to win when the opportunity presented itself. Or at least not lose if it happens too. For both, it seemed, they didn’t want to make any effort.

The Brazilians had secured a place in the round of 16 ahead of the game against Cameroon after clean sheets against Serbia and Switzerland. It is therefore no surprise that manager Tite has allowed many second guard players to play, as he was shown by colleagues Didier Deschamps (France), Luis Enrique (Spain) and Fernando Santos (Portugal). If they weren’t still injured, the famous Neymar, Danilo and Alex Sandro probably wouldn’t have played either, at least not from the start.
