Vincent Aboubakar’s inclusion in the Cameroon squad for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil highlights the German coach Volker Finke’s emphasis on a potent attacking strategy. The Lorient striker, formerly of Coton Sport de Garoua, has enjoyed a successful campaign in the French Ligue 1, netting 12 goals and ranking as the third top scorer.
Volker Finke expressed his confidence in Aboubakar’s abilities during an interview on the Sunday show Téléfoot, affirming that the striker’s impressive performances have earned him a spot in the World Cup squad. This marks Aboubakar’s second consecutive World Cup appearance, showcasing his consistency and value to the national team.
With Aboubakar leading the attack, Cameroon aims to navigate through a challenging group stage that includes hosts Brazil, Mexico, and Croatia. Finke’s decision underscores the importance of firepower upfront as the Indomitable Lions seek success on the world stage.
