Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Cameroon were a delight in the World
Cup finals but a bitter disappointment in this friendly match on a
frost-bitten Wembley turf. There was huge frustration when their Italia
'90 hero Roger Milla refused to play following a disagreement over his
appearance fee. The Africans replaced their usual bright, attacking
football with a dour defensive game and they produced a spate of spiteful
tackles including a reckless challenge on Gary Lineker by the goalkeeper
that brought a twentieth minute penalty. Lineker scored from the spot to
complete a hat-trick of penalties against Cameroon, the first two being
converted in the World Cup match in Italy. It was Lineker who turned in a
Stuart Pearce corner in the sixty-second minute to finish off the
Africans. Crystal Palace striker Ian Wright became Graham Taylor's second
new cap.
