The Indomitable Lions of Cameroon stunned Brazil with a 1-0 victory. A massive win for Cameroon but not enough for them to remain in the tournament as they were eliminated as a result of Switzerland’s win over Serbia.
Goal scorer Aboubakar got sent off after the goal because he took of his shirt forgetting he already had a yellow card before. What a way to exit the World Cup.
Switzerland came clutch with a hard fought 3-2 victory over Serbia to finish second on the Group G table.
Brazil finished top of the group and would face South Korea in the round of 16 stage while Switzerland would slug it out against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal.

Only the game between Serbia and Switzerland is giving the fireworks we expected tonight. Brazil and Cameroon have not found their scoring boots.

Embolo! He could hardly miss after the cross from the right, but a cool finish nonetheless. What a game.

Vlahovic scores! Goodness me, it’s 2-1 to Serbia, they’ve turned this around in no time. A brilliant left-footed finish.
Goal! Serbia 1-1 Switzerland
They’re level already! It’s that man Mitrovic who finds the equaliser. Serbia win it on the halfway line and the Fulham striker guides home a superb header.
Goal! Serbia 0-1 Switzerland
Shaqiri scores! It’s 1-0 Switzerland and it’s a fine left-footed strike from the right side of the box, after Serbia fail to properly clear. Against the run of play, but the Swiss fans won’t care. Rodriguez’s run down the left created that, and Shaqiri pounced with the ball pinballing around.
Kick Off
Can Brazil become the first and only team to win all three group games at the World Cup in Qatar? If they fail, Cameroon suddenly have a shot at qualifying. We would see how it stands after the first 45 minutes.
Starting XI
Both Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli are in the XI for Brazil! A whopping nine changes from Tite. Daniel Alves (39 years 210 days) is set to become the oldest player to appear in a World Cup game for Brazil in history.
Two new centre-backs for the Lions as Christopher Wooh and Enzo Ebosse come in. There is a spot for Vincent Aboubakar up front in what looks like an attacking formation. Moumi Ngamaleu is on the wing.
