It’s do or die for Cameroon today when they play their second Group A match against Croatia vying for nothing short of a victory if they are to progress to the Round Of 16. A defeat will all but end the Indomitable Lions dreams of making an impact at Brazil 2014 as they will surely be eliminated.
This is after Mexico pulled off a shocker last night by holding hosts Brazil to a goalless draw. Both Brazil and Mexico are now on 4 points while Cameroon and Croatia are still to collect points in a group were football experts have predicted that Brazil and Croatia will sail through.

Cameroon lock horns with Croatia in Manaus wary of the fact that the European nation will be bolstered by the re-emergence of star striker Mario Mandzukic who will be making his international comeback after a one match ban over a red card booking during the playoffs.
While the lights seem bright for the Croats, the Indomitable Lions dressing room is in panic mode as their star striker Samuel Eto’o will almost certainly not be part of tonight’s match. The former Chelsea forward picked up a knee injury during the closing stages of the season and so manager Volker Finke will be replacing him with Fenerbahce player Pierre Webo.
The two sides have never met before.
