Burundi is gearing up to host Cameroon in the second and penultimate qualifying round for the U20 Africa Cup of Nations, set to take place in Senegal in 2015. Despite the formidable reputation of their opponents, the Burundian team remains undaunted.
Goalkeeper Ndayishimiye Hussein exudes confidence, emphasizing that while Cameroon may be a football giant, past results don’t dictate future outcomes. He believes there’s potential for Burundi to cause an upset and eliminate Cameroon this time around.
Central defender Uwayezu Nice echoes this sentiment, suggesting that the pressure is on Cameroon to avoid being defeated by a supposedly weaker opponent. He emphasizes that African football is evolving, and Burundi intends to play without fear, challenging Cameroon to match their intensity.
The match is scheduled to take place at the Prince Louis Rwagasore Stadium on May 11, with Burundi looking to build on their previous victory over Djibouti in the first round of qualifiers.
