Pre-match quotes: Angola vs Cameroon

Srdan Vasiljevic (Head Coach, Angola)

After the draw against Burkina Faso, we have to win against Cameroon. Our opponent is a respected side in African football, so we must prepare ourselves thoroughly.

We expect to play this game as a unit so as not to leave too much space for the Indomitable Lions. We are focused on our preparations tactically, recovery and also the psychological aspect that should not be neglected. The draw of the first match has given us more desire to go forward.

Rigobert Song (Head Coach, Cameroon)

We have no choice but to win against Angola if we want to stay in the running. The defeat against Congo hurt us but we must accept it because it is the rule of football.

We have prepared well for Angola. We saw Angola’s match against Burkina Faso to get to know our opponent, especially their strong and weak points. We now have a serious idea of this Angolan team. We will put in place a strategy to counter it.

The players are calm and determined to give their best to win the match.
