The Cameroon national team seemed to go to victory at the U19 World Cup last Sunday, when an unusual move changed the course of the game.
48 seconds from the end, the Camarones won for six points and had possession of the ball. Pressed by the Australian defense, the ball eventually arrived at the post Amadou Seini, who, seeing the “unprotected” carboy, advanced with confidence… and sank into the team’s own basket.
The error left everyone jaw dropped – companions, opponents and public – and marked the decisive moment that contributed to the twist in the scoreboard and the defeat of the Cameroon.
