Achille Webo, the Fenerbahce striker for Cameroon, had a clear opportunity to score in the 67th minute during the match against Tunisia on Sunday. However, to everyone’s surprise, he missed the target. Samuel Eto’o assisted Allan Nyom on the right side, who delivered a well-timed low cross to the far post. Despite being ideally positioned, Webo hesitated, attempting a header and a foot shot before ultimately missing with his thigh. The missed chance contributed to the match ending in a 0-0 draw, and while Cameroon’s goalkeeper Charles Itandje delivered a strong performance, Webo’s miss might have significant consequences in the return match. Internet users drew parallels between Webo’s miss and Pierre Womé’s penalty miss in 2005, which cost Cameroon a spot in the 2006 World Cup.
