00:02And away we go
00:07Comoros will need to start well
00:10In the pre-match press conferences the other day
00:13Even David Pago was saying there's no such thing as a small team anymore in Africa
00:18Warning signs very early on for the hosts, but here they come
00:25Ali Mubarak chases Abdallah decides to be safe
00:30And Cameroon seem to like it
00:38Stefan Paul Keller having a dig from long range
00:46Both sides have briefs
00:50This is a new generation
00:53Good work from Mohamed
00:54He's done very well there and he's allowed Abdallah to move forwards into space
00:58Abdallah tries to play it over and he's played a super ball out onto the wing
01:01Struck first time
01:05Silky stuff from Comoros
01:11Haji
01:13Here's Loda
01:22Brian Umbermo
01:26Finds the ball
01:28It's nearly held up nicely, it is held up nicely by Loda
01:31Chipped into the back post
01:33Dealt with by the Comoros back line
01:38As Cameroon seek
01:43To break down
01:44The bouncing home fans
01:48Is this a chance
01:51Into the box it goes
01:52That's a free header
01:53Great save
01:54And surprising
02:00Cameroona playing quite heavily on the right-hand side
02:04Which allows Brian Umbermo to drift in and out of those spaces
02:08It's a really nice ball into space and they've completely let him in here
02:12Kofane again
02:14Just missing out on that last bit of quality that he needed
02:18It was a really nice run
02:20Unsure if the referee
02:22Gave an offside or the ball went out
02:26Well it definitely wasn't offside
02:30That touch there, it's just a bit too heavy
02:34Again and come forwards again
02:36Ball played into space, this could be a really nice chance
02:39Haji into the box, what does the referee say?
02:41He's not interested at all
02:44Selfish play
02:45When these two sides met
02:49In the AFCON
02:51It was one of the defining games of the Covid era
02:56Talk about that in a minute
02:57As the ball swung in again towards the near post
03:00Kofane threatening again
03:07That's sloppy though
03:09Loda
03:10Got greedy
03:13He had
03:14Kofane in acres of space
03:16To his left
03:17He decided to go alone
03:19And in the end it was
03:20Something of an anticlimax
03:27Comes all the way through
03:30Kofane trying to get the shot away
03:33Claims a handball
03:36Not much protestation
03:38From players and fans alike
03:40The referee
03:42To make life difficult
03:53Again
03:55What seems like a chance every time
03:58Sort of fizzles out quite quick
04:07It's another set piece then
04:10Taken by Loda this time
04:15Taken by Loda this time
04:16Connected nearly fell
04:18In the end
04:20Balls recycled back out to Loda here
04:23In towards the back post
04:24That's a great leap, that's a great goal
04:28Cameroon take the lead
04:32And it's David Niengay
04:35And it's David Niengay
04:36The opener
04:37For the indomitable lions
04:40In this AFCON qualifying campaign
04:45He hung in mid air
04:46Leapt like a salmon
04:50And that is one to be proud of as Cameroon
04:53Can break the deadlock of the first half
04:57And the crowd
05:01Burst into life
05:06A great leap, that's a super header
05:09The goalkeeper has absolutely no chance
05:14He reads it
05:15He reads it
05:15A split second before everyone else
05:17He's up long before
05:20And there's a towering header
05:22From David Niengay
05:25And Cameroon
05:27Are underway
05:40Zaidu
05:50Kari
05:54The goalkeeper came and got himself into a world of mess
05:57And Cameroon have their first corner
06:00Of tonight's outing
06:03A big chance for the visitors
06:07And Burmo plays it quickly
06:09Not the finest free kick move seen
06:17Drilled low
06:19Came to no one
06:22Toi Bibu
06:23Got clear of it
06:26Something of a chase is on now
06:27Haji
06:28Coming towards Avam Ebon
06:31Who has all the time in the world
06:34And the first half draws to a close
06:37It is 1-0 at the break
06:39A tense game
06:41Goes for Deportivo La Corona
06:44In Spain
06:45A lot of players actually in this
06:49This Cameroon line-up
06:51Actually no one
06:52Plays domestic football in Cameroon
06:54They all play
06:56International football elsewhere
06:57Well international football they play for Cameroon
07:00Their club football they play elsewhere
07:09Njenge
07:10Njenge now
07:10Goal scorer in the first half
07:23Njenge drops it back
07:39Direct ball played in
07:41That's a lovely touch
07:42Brian Umbermo
07:43And Umbermo
07:44What a goal
07:46Brian Umbermo
07:50Cameroon's new captain
07:51Delivers
07:54And what a sweet goal it was
08:05Great play between Umbermo
08:08And Umbermo
08:08The substitute
08:21Umbermo
08:22Picks out at Brian Umbermo
08:24And he cuts in on his left foot
08:26Like he did so many times at Brentford
08:28And does now at Manchester United
08:31That is a trademark Brian Umbermo goal
08:36Composure
08:39Calm
08:41And 2-0
08:42And 2-0
08:51Left to the left back
08:58It is Yousef
08:59Goes for goal
09:00And it's knocked in
09:01And Komoros have a goal back
09:05It's number 29
09:07It's Haji
09:09And against the runner play
09:11This game has just got an extremely interesting
09:19Bit of bewilderment
09:22In the Cameroon goal
09:25Struck towards goal
09:26And the little touch on it
09:27From Haji
09:27That is a striker's goal
09:31Preempts that little bit of space
09:32That he needs
09:34Not sure if it was a strike on goal
09:36By Yousef
09:36But he won't mind
09:37It's an assist for him
09:38And a goal for Haji
09:43Loader sends it in
09:46Comes loose
09:47It nearly third
09:47At the back post there
09:49Nearly
09:50And it's cleared
09:51The danger's not over
09:53Loader again
09:541-2 with Brian Umbermo
09:56And Umbermo hits it
10:03Well I think everyone inside the ground
10:05Thought that was going to Nettle
10:07In the bottom
10:08Right-hand corner of the goal
10:13Venomous strike
10:14From the Manchester United forward
10:18Is the star of this side for Cameroon
10:22Komoros
10:23Still throwing themselves forwards where they can
10:27Lovely touch that
10:30It's really well played
10:33Suddenly Cameroon have just split
10:35Half of the Komoros side in one move
10:39Played into space towards Nsonga
10:41A really good move though
10:43They'll be pleased with that
10:47Still lacking
10:48A little bit of quality on that final third
10:52And that final touch
10:55Cameroon looking a bit more settled
10:57In this half
10:57Despite the Komoros goal
11:11Searching ball over towards Abdallah
11:14He flashes one across the face of goal
11:16And the goalkeeper palms it away
11:17It comes back out
11:18And it is saved on the second
11:21Attempt from Haji
11:23I've seen Borhan
11:25It's his entrance onto the pitch
11:29Just half an hour to go
11:34Borac
11:35Free header surely
11:36Oh how has he not scored
11:43Some different players and rest
11:46Some of their
11:47Tied ones
11:48And Bermot gives the ball away
11:49Ali now
11:55Bermot's pressure
11:57Recovers the ball
12:05Well both sides have that focus on youth
12:08Definitely
12:09Say that they're
12:12Performed as such tonight
12:18It's been a dynamic game
12:19Very physical
12:23Still 25 minutes to go
12:28Mubarak
12:31Oh what a turn that is
12:33Leaves Abdallah behind in the dust
12:36Ball in
12:38Not good enough
12:40Amari's goal
12:42Pulling one back for Komoros
12:43After Brian and Bermot
12:45Double the lead
12:47In the first half for David Ninge
12:50Fine header both of Cameroon's goals
12:53Very impressive
12:56Abdallah whips it in
12:57There was a free header in there
12:59And it nearly
12:59Nearly fell
13:04It's Komoros look
13:05To launch a quick counter-attack
13:11It's a confirmation then
13:12It was Muhammad
13:13Number six who came off
13:14As the other
13:16Change
13:18So Kwani
13:20Said
13:20His last name
13:21As the other substitution
13:23Alongside Lutin
13:25For them to go and find
13:27For them to go and find
13:27A third goal
13:28Re-establish that
13:29Two-goal lead
13:41Well
13:43Dominated in the corner game
13:47Maroon have seven
13:48Komoros is one
13:52He did again
13:55Again straight into the gloves of
13:57Pandor
13:58Bill and Songo now
14:00Into the box
14:01Cuts inside
14:03Tries to find a ball
14:04To the back post
14:07Oh that's wonderful
14:09From Nge
14:20Oh and the strike
14:23Came out of nowhere
14:25Touch from Lode
14:26He's done so well
14:27There to get away
14:28From Borjan
14:34Fosso
14:36To Nge
14:36Oh lovely triangle
14:39Football
14:41Fosso
14:43Fosso cuts inside
14:44Still going here
14:47Back out to Nge
14:50There's the cross
14:51Oh and Brian
14:51And Bermont
14:52Went for the spectacular
14:55Well that would have been
14:57Whipped in
14:58Space at the back post
15:00Taken down by Zakuni
15:07Strike from long range
15:09And the goalkeeper
15:10Spilled it
15:13He spared blushes
15:14To an almost ridiculous
15:16As I do
15:19Rare spell
15:20Where Komoros
15:21Are playing the ball around
15:22That's a very nice
15:23Whipped ball out
15:24Towards Lutin
15:27Tries to take on Fosso
15:31Abdallah goes in
15:32And it
15:33Flashed across
15:39And there's space
15:40To run on to here
15:41Oh what a touch
15:42That is
15:43He's got to pull it back
15:43He has
15:44It's Lode
15:48It's three
15:54He's been super
15:55He really deserves
15:56That goal
16:02Another ball
16:03That split
16:04The Komoros defence
16:08What a ball
16:09It was from
16:10Chamadao
16:13A lovely flick
16:14And the awareness
16:15To pick out Loda
16:17Who swept
16:19The ball home
16:21Surely now
16:22Three points
16:23In the bag
16:24The Komoros
16:26Resistance
16:26Is broken
16:30And it's a dream
16:31Start
16:32To AFCON
16:33Proceedings
16:34In this competition
16:37Here is their star
16:38Brian and Bermot
16:39Down the line
16:40Really nice ball
16:41No one in the middle
16:51Another lovely ball
16:52And Joe
16:53Into the box
16:54Dealt with very well
16:55By Bahamut
16:58Good defending
17:00From the tall centre-back
17:17Played in
17:18Once more
17:18Space
17:19The overhead kick
17:21Attempt
17:21Never seemed to really
17:23Come off
17:35Burma
17:35With another
17:36Lovely ball
17:37And Joe
17:38Into the box
17:39And he nearly
17:39Came to the back post
17:40Just fell
17:41Under the foot
17:44We'll substitute
17:45Chamadao
17:46And he goes again
17:47Ball comes loose
17:48Again
17:48The handball
17:50Referee
17:51Towards a free kick
17:52To Komoros
17:54To Komoros
17:55To Komoros
18:03As the final whistle
18:04Approaches
18:05And he's picked back
18:07One last time
18:07Here's Komoros
18:08Coming forwards
18:09To Komoros
18:10To Komoros
18:11As the final whistle
18:12As the final whistle
18:28full time then and Cameroon are off to a good start in their AFCON qualifying campaign
