My role in the dressing room is to guide the young ones .to welcome everyone intergrating the den like a brother, because we are like a family. And for me that&#8217;s the most important. I play that role with or without the arm band. It&#8217;s an honor for me to wear the captain armband of the Cameroon national team, but I will say, with or without it I am someone who gives 100% of himself and when I speak of person I don&#8217;t only talk of me as a footballer &#8221; Zambo explains.<\/p>\n<p>Captaining the national team will be Zambo&#8217;s gift since turning 28, as the midfielder celebrated his birthday on November 16, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The match will take place at the Japoma sports stadium in douala, at 8pm. It will be the first meeting between the two teams since 2011, when Cameroon won 5-0 in a friendly.<\/p>\n<p>As the heavyweights of Group D, the Indomitable Lions will be eyeing the top spot, especially with a kind draw that pits them against Cape Verde, Angola, Libya, Eswatini.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92023 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
