Game Preview
On January 19, Senegal and Cameroon will square off at Yamoussoukro City Stadium in Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast. Group C of the Africa Cup of Nations includes the game.
The Senegal national team is coming into this AFCON cup game on a strong winning streak. They have recently defeated Niger 1-0 and Gambia 3-0, extending their remarkable unbeaten run to five games. Their defensive play has been especially strong, with five straight clean sheets. Senegal’s resounding victory against Gambia was a statement to those who hoped to unseat them. They defeated Gambia with 3 goals, and even though they had a man sent off, their whole performance was still impressive. After a nice sequence of play in which Sadio Mane found the Marseille midfielder after stretching the defense of the Gambia out wide, Pape Gueye opened the score. In their last 20 games, Senegal has prevailed in 14 of them.
The Cameroon national team comes into the game with a four-match winning streak, having drawn their previous three games versus Guinea, Zambia, and Libya. In their last nine away games, Cameroon has given up goals. No matter how impressive Senegal was in their first game, it would be illogical to count out Cameroon scoring any goals at all. Actually, Cameroon has scored in the last 4 matches versus Mauritius, Zambia, and Libya. Frank Magri’s header versus Guinea was expertly put away, shooting low into the ground and out of the goalkeeper’s reach. Toulouse’s striker was found in a packed area by Georges-Kevin N’Koudoi’s cross, demonstrating their ability to penetrate from behind. Against a defense that hasn’t allowed a goal in their previous five games, Cameroon will have their hands full. But none of those teams have players close to the caliber that Cameroon has on their roster. This will be a close game as both teams have a great squad.
