The Minister of Sports and Physical Education, Philippe Mbarga Mboa, yesterday presided over an evaluation meeting on the future of the national football squad, the Indomitable Lions. The meeting comes three days after the match between Sudan and Cameroon that took place at the Ahmadou Ahidjo stadium in Yaounde. Present at the meeting were press men, the Secretary General of the Cameroon football governing body (FECAFOOT), Jean Rene Atangana Mbala as well as the technical staff of the Indomitable Lions.
The aim of the meeting was to exhange ideas with the press and to look for strategies on how to help the national team
qualify for the World Cup 2006 in Germany. It was an occasion for members to examine some of the lapses of the last match and to make suggestions on how to avoid the same erors in future matches. Among the topics discussed in the meeting were that of discipline within the Indomitable Lions team, the need for a press officer for the team so as to facilitate the difusion of information as well some organisational hitches. The Minister called on the jounalists to continue to sensitise the public on the need to support the national football team. He also congratulated the new medical staff of the Lions for a remarkable work done for the Lions.
