Rwanda 2009: Junior Lions Brace-up (09.07.2008)
Fred VUBEM
They will take on Burundi for the first round qualifiers of the African Youth Championship.
Some 25 players of the junior national football team went into camp last week in Yaounde in preparation for the return leg match against Burundi on July 12. The match counts for the return leg of the first round qualifiers for the 16th African Youth Championship to take place next year in Rwanda. There are only three foreign-based players in the squad that includes three goal keepers, seven defenders, ten mid-fielders and five attackers.
During the away leg played in Yaounde a fortnight ago, the Boys of Alain Wabo alias “Fabio Capello”, edged Burundi 1-0. It is worthy to note that Cameroon had a poor performance in the last
edition of the competition which took place in Congo in 2007 as the lions were eliminated in the first round. The new coach, Alain Wabo therefore has the uphill task of erasing the sad memories of Congo 2007. Judging from their play style in the away leg match against Burundi, the junior lions have to go back to the drawing board, that is, if they are nursing any hopes to lift the trophy.
It is worthy to note that the winner after both legs will qualify for the last and final round qualifiers. The final phase of the championship will be held in Rwanda from January 18 to February 1, 2009. Twenty-eight teams will battle each other for a place in the second round, which will see seven teams joining host Rwanda for the finals. The last edition was hosted and won by Congo.
