Tough game for the Indomitable Lions!

I would say Cameroon wins this match.

[marko kok prong]

Cameroon unsettled, by player's going on strike for higher match fees,i am going for 1-1 here.

Good call. There are meant to be a few problems in the Cameroon camp with regards to the paying of bonuses. We covered the story here earlier. Nothing to be worried about according to the Cameroon coach, we'll see.

30mins played and an open game so far.

Mexico probably should be one up - dubious offside decision. They had most of the early pressure but Cameroon coming more into the game with etoo comong really close to scoring.

The rain is absolutely teeming down but no impact, thus far, on the underfoot conditions.

Must say, the more I see of BAE the more I'm convinced that he is a dead ringer for Baldrick!!

Wow, another dodgy offside decision against Mexico. Would have been given if it was Brazil.........

[uptheos]

2nd goal should have stood, the Cameroon defender's head touched it first.

Where do they get these officials from?

[sotsira]

With the way these officials are making clear cut errors, this World Cup could well

be decided on their performances instead of the teams performances.

Agree guy's could not see what was wrong with the second goal,also no yellow for elbow in face by cameroon player on Herrera i think it was,but very open game,some good football,in heavy rain,reminds me a bit of germany 74 with that rain,even though i was just a nipper then,agree about the officials,not to bad here but,second offside goal should have stood for mexico,english audio is awful again but at least i don't have to hear khap every 2 seconds.

Don't forget that BAE is there, and we all know that he only plays for the money! $$$$$$$

Man of the match for this one,i think Dos Santos.

[marko kok prong]

Blew my nose in second half,think ears are blocked,audio better after,still heard a khap though,i am sure.

[Travel2003]

2nd match, and 2nd scandalous official team.

I am guessing Cameroon want the money back from the Ref.

He tried and tried but could not deliver the victory to them.

[marko kok prong]

Let's hope dodgy ref's don't ruin the tournament.

two games in and two poor refereeing performances. Let's hope it doesn't continue throughout the tournament

Agree.

Who can forget the farce in the Japan-Korea world cup.
