The "African champions", the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon after a firm tussle of muscles in the return leg of the match with Nigeria ended up with a 1-1 draw. A goal gotten through a penalty that was finished by Abubakar Vensan. Despite all the efforts put in by the Lions, they were still outplayed by their Nigerian counterparts. The Lions doubled their efforts in the second half of the game and pressed really hard on the Super Eagles of Nigeria. With all the struggle, they could not get more than a draw. This draw hosts the Lions out of the qualifiers' list for the forth coming world cup in Russia. The game ended with real famished players who carried on real depressed faces after seeing their opportunity to part take in the world cup being crumbed down by the the Super Eagles.
