The Indomitable Lions face Mexico on the night of Saturday to Sunday in a friendly match at Snapdragon Stadium, in the city of San Diego, in the United States.
And the least we can do is that the men of Rigobert Song, who have set up camp at the Mariott hotel, about ten minutes from the stadium, are experiencing a truncated preparation. After a recovery day this Wednesday for the Lions, who arrived the day before in San Diego, Nicolas Nkoukou and his teammates will be ready to train this Thursday from 6 p.m. local time. They will be 19 in number for the match against Mexico, because Nouhou Tolo (retained by his Seattle Sounders club), Martin Hongla (family reasons) and Jean Onana (last minute package) will be absent, indicated the Cameroon Federation of football (Fecafoot). let’s remember that Song has also decided to do without executives like André-Frank Zambo Anguissa, Vincent Aboubakar and Éric Maxim Choupo-Moting.

They remain on 2 counter-performances
Even if it is only a friendly meeting, the Lions are still on a very gloomy series. On March 28, they were beaten to everyone’s surprise by the modest team of Namibia (2-1). Four days earlier, this same formation had already hooked them on their land (1-1). To put an end to this bad series of results and reassure themselves in view of the decisive match on the last day of the qualifying rounds of the CAN 2023 against Burundi in September, Rigobert Song’s men will do everything to beat Mexico this Sunday in California. The North American team disposed of Guatemala in a friendly match this Thursday (2-0). Five days after their match against Cameroon, they will face the United States in the semi-finals of the CONCACAF Nations League.
