All the doubts around the appointment of Marc Brys were settled when they came up against Cameroon in their last encounter. A 4-1 result was enough to turn Cameroon's doubters into believers. Although many fans will state that they expected a win against Cape Verde, the fashion in which the Cameroon National Team carried out the results, speaks volumes for the future of their new head coach and the direction this team will be taking. he Fielded a 3-4-3 with Andre Onana in goal and a Back three that saw Nouhou Tolo, Michael Ngadeu and Cristopher wooh in defence. Bryan Mbuemo completed a front three that had Vicent Aboubakar return to play in the number 9 role for his national team. Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting was on the bench and was not needed in this match.
The first half went superbly well for Cameroon with two goals from star strike Aboubakar, and one from Ngadeu to open the scoring. Cape Verde were able to pull one back through Monteiro. By half time the score was 3-1 in favour of Cameroon. The second Half kicked off with another Cameroonian goal, by Tolo. a long string of substitutes saw the score line stay the same and the match concluded with a Cameroon win.
Angola will have to prepare measures to try keep star striker Aboubakar quite, he will definitely be the first name on the team sheet for Marc Brys. Angola will relay on the steady defence that saw them keep a clean sheet against Eswatini. They are very capable of playing a compressed game, and minimising the opponents chances at goal. They did this well after scoring the second minute goal against Eswatini and keeping things tight at the back to see out the result.
Despite the impressive outing last time out for Cameroon, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven outings. This is a cause for concern, when considering that they have just two wins in their last seven matches. Angola have the better run of form, they have recorded four wins in their last seven matches However, those wins have come against lesser sides. They failed to beat Nigeria, and Morocco in that run of seven games, further adding doubts to their ability against Africa's big footballing nations. Although form is on their side, it is hard to imagine that they can cause an upset against this high flying Cameroon side.
