Cameroon Vs Serbia: Grade Cameroon\'s supreme World Cup players of all time

The FIFA World Cup sometimes called the Football or the Soccer World Cup, but usually mentioned simply as the World Cup, is a global association football tournament contested by the men\'s national sides of the members of the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport\'s global leading body. The challenge has been awarded every four years since the first contest in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946, due to World War II.

The contest consists of two parts, the qualification stage and the final stage officially called the Football World Cup Finals. The qualification stage, which currently takes place three years earlier than the Finals, is used to control which teams qualify for the Finals. The present set-up of the Finals involves 32 teams opposing for the title, at venues within the host nation or nations over about a month.

The World Cup Finals is the most broadly viewed sporting event in the world, with a projected 715.1 million people watching the 2006 contest final. Cameroon has appeared in the finals of the FIFA World Cup eight times, the first being in 1982 when they drew all three group games and finished in 17th place. In 1990 Cameroon touched the quarter-finals before being beaten 3–2 by England. 

Roger Milla, at the age of 42, became the oldest player ever to give the impression in event finals at the 1994 FIFA World Cup, where he also accomplished to score a goal. The record for the oldest player was broken in 2014 by Colombian goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon, but Milla is still the oldest goalscorer at FIFA finals. They will make their eighth attendance at the finals in the Qatar FIFA World Cup 2022.

Cameroon\'s premium World Cup hour

30 years ago, Cameroon held one of the most unforgettable and unlikely outcomes in FIFA World Cup history when they overcome ruling champions Argentina in 1990. Francois Omam-Biyik\'s header everlasting header proved too much for unfortunate goalkeeper Nery Pumpido to keep out. While the Cameroon football team\'s cruelty in that tournament cannot be ignored, the seismic influence of the victory.

As sub-Saharan Africa showed they could compete with the world\'s best football teams, cannot be taken too lightly. Three decades removed from that well-known success, a sports site positions the 10 supreme Football World Cup players in the nation\'s football history, including one or two faces from that famed victory. 

Top 10-6 players of Cameroon Football World Cup history

Rigobert Song

No African has played at more FIFA World Cups than Song, who was introduced in four tournaments and, equalling Zinedine Zidane’s best was sent off in two. As an influential, impressive presence in the heart of Cameroon’s football team defence, he won two Nations Cups and carried a particularly influential series of presentations in the 2002 World Cup. He drops down this list because, despite his standing and his global success, he collapsed at Liverpool and didn’t have a mainly successful club profession, with two Turkish titles the highlight.

Joseph-Antoine Bell

He’s not the most highly graded Cameroon’s goalkeeper on this list, but the good people at IFFHS would be upset with our overall Classement, having called Bell Africa’s supreme goalkeeper of the 20th century. He was two times African Footballer of the Year and won the Nations Cup on two occasions. With Union Douala, he won the African Champions League, but his brilliant Marseille side was unsuccessful in realising their potential between 1985 and 1988.He represented the national side in three FIFA World Cups in 1982, 1990 and 1994.

Jean Manga-Onguene

Onguene was Caf’s Footballer of the Year in 1980 perhaps the best season of his profession although definitely, his greatest accomplishment was altering Canon Yaounde. They won three African Champions Leagues and six league championships during his 16-year spell, making them continental titans, although he deceased the international part before Cameroon\'s first truly successful World Cup side.

Patrick Mboma

The powerful Mboma was twice the top scorekeeper at the Nations Cup, putting him among a very elite group of African hitmen who could worry the continent’s best defences on a reliable basis. His nomadic club profession was fairly unfruitful in terms of silverware, but he won two Nations Cups and Olympic gold with Cameroon, as well as sealing the African Ballon d’Or in 2000. He played in the 1998 and 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Theophile Abega

Labelled ‘Doctor’ due to his brainy approach to the game, IFFHS named Abega as Africa’s sixth-best player during the 20th Century, a position which hints at the important influence he had during the 1980s. He won two CAF Champions Leagues with Canon Yaounde, and he played all three games at the 1982 FIFA World Cup. He was the Player of the Contest at the 1984 Nations Cup and counted in the 3-1 final victory over Nigeria. 

Top 5 players of Cameroon Football World Cup history

Lauren

Cameroon perhaps didn’t see the best of Lauren, who retired from global duty before he truly hit the heights as one of Arsenal’s Invincibles. He was part of the Cameroon team at the France 1998 World Cup and 2002, held in Japan and Korea. However, he was a share of the Golden Generation that won two Afcon titles and the Olympic gold at the turn of the era and won two Premier League crowns with Arsenal. During his six-year spell with the Gunners, he also won three FA Cups and added a fourth when he featured in Portsmouth’s unforgettable success in the competition in 2009.  

Geremi

Geremi was a respected benefit to three superb sides, now how many players in the past of the global game let alone the African context can say that? As well as winning two African championships and the Olympic gold medal with Cameroon, he went on to win two Champions Leagues and the Spanish title with Real Madrid. Geremi received 118 caps for Cameroon from 1996 to 2010, scoring 13 goals. He was a fellow of their team for seven Africa Cup of Nations contests, winning in 2000 and 2002, as well as the Football World Cup in 2002 and 2010.

Thomas N\'Kono

On four events, Caf graded ThomasN’Kono among Africa’s three best participants of the year, while the defender won the African Ballon d’Or two times, one of only two goalkeepers to win the honour and the only one to do so two times. His conflict with Jojo Bell may disturb his legacy, but it was N’Kono who kept goal in two Football World Cups surrendering just one in 1982. He spent almost an era with Espanyol and loved great achievement with Canon Yaounde.

Roger Milla

Milla’s standing as African football’s wild old man thinks of his hip-swinging tricks at the 1990 and 1994 FIFA World Cup is in danger of mocking from his quality, and the inheritance he’s left behind him. Milla wasn’t just a grandfather who knew how to find the net. Beyond being the oldest player to score at a World Cup, he’s also a two-time African Footballer of the Year and was called by Caf Africa’s Player of the Century.

Samuel Eto\'o

Eto’o stands alone as Cameroon’s noblest player, and debatably Africa’s top footballer of all time as well. After being part of the Cameroon superb side of the turn of the century, he went on to enjoy huge success in Europe with Barcelona and Internazionale. He became part of an elite group of players to win the Champions League with two clubs back-to-back when Mourinho’s Inter sealed the title in 2010, Eto’o third crown. Goals are the money of football, and Eto’o is a master.
