    Brasil doesn't want to win this game. Bruno ;)

    Cameroon only African squad to beat Brasil in a competitive game... Twice!

    Only African team to beat both Argentina and Brazil in a World Cup.

    We both know this doesn't really count, but I'll take it!

    Also first Cameroon World Cup win since 2002.

    Very happy that Cameroon finally didn't suck.

    Is a yellow for taking off one's shirt really necessary!?!?

    On some level I ended up feeling like Ghana was the biggest dissapointment. They had progression in palm of hand and messed up.

    What a way to leave the World Cup Aboubakar sent off for removing his shirt

    Actually it's a World Cup legend moment. Game winning goal vs Brasil in historic win. Would be much stupider though if it had cost him a 1/8 final start...

    Cameroon has had someone sent off in every World Cup.

    Aboubakar kept the tradition alive in the most spectacular fashion possible! Legend!

    I wonder what the actual rule states. If it states that a player may not take off their shirt, they should just take off a teammate's shirt going forward. That would be technically legal, which is the best kind of legal.

    Everyone focused on Aboubakar and his red, but a shout out for Jerome Ngom Mbekeli of Colombe Sport!

    Played a total of four minutes in the entire tournament plus extra time, made one pass which ended being a goal winning assist!
