Text : World cup report
The Lions of Cameroon have shown us all they are one of the top football nations in
the world. They reached the Quarter-finals and came fifth in the 1990 world Cup.
When the world Cup competition started, most people said, ‘Cameroon doesn’t have
any chance’. But in the first match everything changed. The Lions beat Argentina (with
Maradona) 1 - 0 in Milan.
The next match was against Romania. Roger Milla, at 38 one of the oldest players in
the competition scored two great goals in the last ten minutes. The result: a 2 – 1 victory
for the Lions.
In their final match in the first round Cameroon played the Soviet Union. They lost
4 – 0, but it didn’t matter because they were already into the second round.
In the second round they played Columbia. The match went into extra time, with the
score 0 – 0. Then in ten minutes everything changed. First Milla beat two men and calmly
put the ball into the net. Then he easily got past the Columbian goalkeeper Higuita, and the
ball was in the net again! Lions 2, Columbia 1.
Next came the Quarter-finals: Cameroon and England. In the first half, England’s
David Platt scored with a header. But still the Lions attacked. Again it was Milla! He came
on in the second half, and immediately he helped his team to score a goal. Then the referee
gave a penalty against England. Milla scored, and the Lions were in front, 2 – 1. Then
England scored again and, just before the end, England got another penalty. The final
score was 3 – 2 to England. Bobbie Robson, the England manager, generously said ‘The
Lions played better than England’’.
It was all over. But it is only the beginning. Watch out for Cameroon and the rest of
Africa in future world Cups!
