officials said but for Nicolas Nkoulou who will not likely play , the entire team is brazing up to a thrilling encounter.
“His
(Nkoulou’s) knee injury can not enable him to play two intense matches in three
days,” we are told. The head coach Hugo Bross admitted that the players need to
be smarter than before and that there would be changes which he did not
make clear.

there has been no word or mobilization directives from the Cameroon High
Commission in Pretoria. The phones rang repeatedly when we called with no response, at the time of filing in this report. We were reliably informed that the embassy hierarchy was spotted at the field where the Lions trained, Sunday.
