Marc Brys has opted for the return of Christopher Wooh into the heart of Cameroon’s defense in place of Michael Ngadeu as one of three changes for this Tuesday’s crucial FIFA World Cup qualifier against Cabo Verde in Praia.
The stakes could not be higher as Cabo Verde and Cameroon lock horns this Tuesday, September 9, 2025, in Praia for matchday eight of the 2026 FIFA World Cup African qualifiers. Kick-off is set for 5PM Cameroon time in what is already being billed as a “duel of all dangers.”
Exclusive information reaching us confirms that Cameroon is set to field an adjusted XI for this decisive clash. After days of intense debate within the technical bench, head coach Marc Brys and his close staff have opted to make key changes, introducing a lineup that blends resilience at the back, steel in midfield, and firepower in attack.
In goal, the ever-reliable André Onana will command the defense. He is shielded by a solid backline comprising Christopher Wooh, Enrique Boyomo, Jackson Tchatchoua, and Nouhou Tolo, a unit tasked with keeping Cape Verde’s quick forwards at bay.
The midfield promises both grit and creativity. Franck Zambo Anguissa and Martin Hongla will provide muscle and stability, while rising star Carlos Baleba adds dynamism and balance. This trio is expected to dictate the tempo and close down spaces against the Blue Sharks.
On the flanks, Georges-Kévin Nkoudou and Bryan Mbeumo will bring pace and directness, stretching the Cape Verde defense and feeding the team’s captain and talisman, Vincent Aboubakar, who leads the line with his trademark strength and finishing instincts.
It is a lineup carefully constructed for a match that could define Cameroon’s qualifying campaign. A victory in Praia would strengthen the Lions’ chances of booking a ticket to the 2026 World Cup, but Cape Verde, sturdy at home and motivated by their passionate fans, remain a formidable obstacle.
As the clock ticks down to kick-off, one thing is clear: all of Cameroon is rallying “behind the Lions.” The Indomitable spirit will be put to the test in Praia, and the new-look XI is ready for the battle.
