2015 AFRICA CUP - CAMEROON - FINKE STICKS WITH CORE GROUP

Africa Cup 2015 GROUP D

GROUP D - FIXTURES 
20 Jan: vs Mali in Malabo
24 Jan: vs Guinea in Malabo
28 Jan: vs Ivory Coast in Malabo

 

As expected, there is no place for Alex Song who has not played for the Indomitable Lions since being sent off in the 4-0 World Cup loss to Croatia.

The combative midfielder retired last week after being overlooked in Finke's provisional 24-man squad.

Song, who is on loan at West Ham from Barcelona, flew to Yaoundé for talks about a late call-up but nothing materialised.

Finke called up Aurelien Chedjou to replace Brice Nlate Ekongolo who was injured in a car accident. .

The only player axed from Finke's provisional squad is Jacques Zoua who plays for Kayseri Erciyesspor in Turkey.

After losing all their matches at the World Cup in Brazil, Cameroon will be hoping to build on an unbeaten qualifying campaign at the Cup of Nations finals.

Strikers Vincent Aboubakar and Clinton N'Jie scored seven of the nine goals the Indomitable Lions netted in a qualifying campaign that included a 4:1 win over Ivory Coast.

The two will meet again in Group D at the finals.

Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting is also enjoying a good season with German side Schalke 04, with nine Bundesliga goals to his name so far.

The Indomitable Lions will play a friendly against South Africa in Gabon on 11 January.

The Indomitable Lions are due to fly to Malabo on 16 January, a day before the Africa Cup of Nations kicks off.
