Indomitable Lions’ captain Vincent Aboubakar has apologized to Cameroonians for the team’s disappointing performance at the Africa Cup of Nations. The Lions were eliminated at the knockouts, conceding 2-0 to Nigeria. They won only one out of four games and had no shots on target in the game against Nigeria. Aboubakar, who was benched throughout the group stage, acknowledged that the team’s output was not enough to keep Cameroon in the tournament. He apologized to the people of Cameroon and expressed determination to do better in future matches. Aboubakar missed the first group game due to a thigh injury and fans argued that his presence could have made a significant difference for the team. The team’s recent performance has led to outrage among Cameroonians, with many calling for the resignation of Coach Rigobert Song. Some blame the coach for taking a squad of amateur players to the AFCON, while others blame the players for showing little passion during the games.
