He is one of the best players of the Cameroonian team since the start of the 33rd edition of the Africa Cup of Nations, TotalEnergies AFCON Cameroon 2021.

Goalkeeper André Onana marked his territory despite the disappointment of the Indomitable Lions and an elimination in the semi-final against Egypt.

"We are really disappointed not to be able to reach the final, but that's football too," said the Cameroonian goalkeeper in a press conference before the match against Burkina Faso for third place.

He added "Since the At the start of the tournament, we performed very well but in the semi-finals, it didn't work out and it all came down to the penalty shootout. Too bad for us".

The Indomitable Lions keeper, who plays a big role in Antonio Conceiçao's team, hopes that this disappointment will not affect the group that will have to play the last qualifying round for the FIFA World Cup, Qatar 2022.

"I ask my brothers and sisters to stay around this young team. We are responsible, it's true, but let's stick together because we have something to achieve in a month and a half. We have to negotiate the play-offs to offer Cameroonians a qualification for the World Cup and forget the disappointment of the AFCON", he concluded.
