Relief echoes among the supporters of the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon as Samuel Eto’o, who was absent from a training session on Wednesday afternoon, reappeared on Thursday morning alongside his teammates at the Ahmadou-Ahidjo stadium in Yaoundé. The initial absence had triggered concerns among Cameroonian supporters, but it was later revealed to be a false alarm.
Eto’o had missed the training session due to a blow he had received. In the midst of uncertainty in Cameroon regarding the Lions’ qualification for the upcoming CAN, every detail is scrutinized closely by the population. The absence of the team captain could have had demoralizing effects on the group and the entire country. With Eto’o expected to be fit, Cameroon is gearing up to face Cape Verde and overcome a two-goal deficit to secure their ticket to South Africa.
