Injury-hit England prepare for Cameroon (25.05.2002)
KOBE
England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has told his injury-hit squad to pull no punches when they wind up their World Cup preparations against physical Cameroon here Sunday.
Eriksson`s World Cup plans have been dogged by problems since the close of the English season, with injuries to his midfield stacking up rapidly.
Danny Murphy was the latest to fall victim to the English injury jinx on Friday, the Liverpool player ruled out with a broken foot to be replaced by West Ham`s Trevor Sinclair.
With skipper David Beckham, his Manchester United team-mate Nicky Butt and Newcastle`s Kieron Dyer already battling back from injury, Eriksson will be praying for no more casualties in Sunday`s game.
Cameroon, the reigning African champions, are renowned as a physical side and are led by the muscular Rigobert Song - the only player to be sent off at two World Cups.
Yet despite the `Indomitable Lions` reputation for taking no prisoners, Eriksson will not tell his players to take it easy, and plans to give most of his squad a run-out.
"If you go into a friendly game and you are afraid of being injured the possibility of being injured is bigger, much bigger.
"You have to tackle and you have to play as you normally do, without doing stupid things of course," he said.
Eriksson acknowledged the importance of the match to England`s World Cup first phase even though it had been devalued by the mounting injury list.
He had originally hoped to use the match as an opportunity to bed down his starting line-up for England`s World Cup opener against Sweden on June 2.
"A few weeks ago I was asked if I would field my strongest team
against Cameroon and I said yes. Today I will say no - I can`t, it`s impossible," he said.
"We`re going to let more or less everyone play as we have done during all the friendly games because at this point that`s the only way to do it."
Eriksson and the England camp may console themselves with the thought that their troubled build-up pales into insignificance with Cameroon`s farcical preparations.
Under respected German coach Winfried Schafer, Cameroon had slowly shed their reputation for chaotic organisation and haphazard planning.
But all the old doubts re-emerged last week amid disputes over bonus money and flying permits. The Africans finally arrived in Japan late Thursday but only after a four-day delay.
They had been stranded on the outskirts of Paris, refusing to leave France because individual payments of 45,734 euros (42,000 dollars) had not been paid.
Their plane finally took off from Europe on Tuesday and arrived in Bangkok at 9.00 am (0200 GMT) for an unexpected refueling stop after prolonged stopovers in Ethiopia and India.
But by that time, the plane`s pilot realised he did not have permission from Cambodia, Vietnam and the Philippines to fly over their airspace, an official at Bangkok International Airport said earlier.
The plane spent seven hours in the Thai capital before it was granted special flyover permission by the three countries.
Despite the gruelling journey, Cameroon stretched their legs successfully on Friday, defeating Japanese second division side Saga Tosu 1-0 thanks to a goal from Real Mallorca`s Samuel Eto`o.
Cameroon play Germany, Saudi Arabia and the Republic of Ireland in World Cup Group E.
