The Cameroonian national team will be looking to secure their ticket for the 2026 World Cup during the upcoming international break—without having to go through the playoffs.

Trailing Cape Verde by four points, Cameroon needs an extremely favorable set of circumstancehttps://foot-africa.com/en/news/world/s in the last two rounds of the African qualifiers.

The Indomitable Lions must first defeat Mauritius on October 8 and then Angola on October 13.

Meanwhile, Cape Verde would have to lose both of their upcoming matches against Libya and Eswatini, scheduled for October 8 and 13, respectively.

It’s a wild scenario that is hard to imagine, especially since the Blue Sharks have only lost once in eight qualifying matches.

For the record, Cameroon has made eight World Cup appearances, specifically in the 1982, 1990, 1994, 1998, 2002, 2010, 2014, and 2022 editions.
