Cameroon Vs Nigeria: Indomitable Lions Fail To Qualify For 2018 World Cup After Draw With Super Eagles
African champions Cameroon failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia after a 1-1 draw with Nigeria at the Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo in Yaounde on Monday, September 4, 2017.
Nigeria took the lead after 30 minutes through Moses Simon after the ball broke to him in the area.
The Belgian based forward took advantage of a poor clearance to beat goalkeeper Fabrice Ondoa.
Cameroon then equalised in the 75th minute as substitute Vincent Aboubakar scored from the penalty spot.
It would be recalled that the Super Eagles had won the first leg in Uyo by 4-0 last week Friday.
Today’s result means Cameroon have just three points from four matches and can no longer finish top of Group B.
Meanwhile, the other fourth round match in this group sees Algeria host Zambia in Constantine on Tuesday.
A win for Zambia will take them to seven points just three behind Nigeria with two games to play while Algeria must win to keep alive any slim hopes they still have of going to Russia.
