Stanley doesn’t seem able to continue the newbie, he hasn’t recovered from the earlier shock. He has been replaced by Omonia Nicosia goalkeeper Uzoho.

He has been targeted, since the restart, with Nigeria’s number 9 being cut down. Cameroon’s defense does not know what to do now.
46′ Once again…
Victor Osimhen raised a hand on Omar Gonzales, be it physical or mental. Once again, the Neapolitan surpassed the Cameroonian.
It’s halftime
Cameroonian folk will not keep very long. The Nigeria side has more edge, more aggression. It is found on target. Omar Gonzales’ big mistake to open the scoring in the 35th minute mirrored the first half for the Indomitable Lions.

Zaidoo tackles and fouls. The referee whistles a good set piece for the incredulous Lions, but the shot goes wide.

The Indomitable Lions have clearly taken a hit to the back of their head. They no longer bring balloons from their camp.

28′ It’s hot!
The playing conditions are absolutely perfect, the pitch is perfect, it is not raining. However, the heat is present, it is 30 degrees, and it is starting to be felt in the game, as the intensity is cooling down. There will also be a refreshment break!
