In a clash for Group J leaders, Cameroon faces Zimbabwe in the final match of the AFCON Morocco 2025 qualifiers. While both teams have already secured their tickets to the tournament, today’s game at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium promises to be more than just a formality.
6th and last playing day of the AFCON Morocco 2025 eliminatory match pitting Cameroon Vs Zimbabwe, who of the two will end up in style? Already qualified for the Morocco intercontinental football party, a victory for any of the two selections in the encounter that take place this Tuesday 11thNovember at 2 pm in the Ahmadou Ahidjo stadium Yaoundé will puts them at the prestigious top position of their group J .While many football analysts think that it will be an opportunity for Head Coach Marc Brys to test the young and inexperienced player in the selection, which could help him ascertain the fitness of his bench ahead of the competition, the Belgian and his boys think that there is not small match as they are poised to go in for nothing less than a win. “We are competitors and we are going in to win the match” Indomitable lions’ central defender Christopher Wooh said to journalist yesterday in the pre match press conference.
As for Marc Brys, wining the today’s encounter is a must to him since he has realized that there are a lot of people who do not like his presence in Cameroon “I have discovered that there are Cameroonians who wish that we should lose the match” he declared in the press conference. In this level, the only thing the Belgian will have to do is to put his team in a position that his detractors will not have anything else to say. It is true that the coach came in through a channel that is more or less acceptable, but over time he has been able to build up a selection that has brought back joy to Cameroonians, by solidifying the defensewith Michael Ngandeu, bringing help to Zambo Anguissa in the midfield with the presence of Martin Hongla and Carlos Baleba, not forgetting the attack line where he has given the starting position to Christian Bassogog. The only issue now might be the fact that he will always want to start with captain Vincent Aboubakar who has already given too much to the selection and needs to come in this time like a joker to rectify errors.
The indomitable lions are already at the top of their group with 11 points, recording 3 wins, 2 draw and zero loss, closelyfollowed by Zimbabwe with 9 points. Though the both already have their tickets for Morocco 2025 at hand, the match this afternoon promises fireworks.
