🏆👉 Cameroon and Serbia ended the FIFA World Cup Group G with a draw on Monday 28 November 2022 at the Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah, Qatar.  In the first half, it was all Cameroon who found the initial lead on a corner kick with Jean-Charles Castelletto. Serbia then scored twice in the space of three minutes. First through Strahinja Pavlović and then through Lazio player Sergej Milinković-Savić. The start of the second half was a continuation of the closure of the first half, with Serbia’s 3-1 scored by Aleksandar Mitrović. Then, it seems Cameroon returned with a full tank and managed to draw with Vincent Aboubakar author of a goal and a winning assist for Eric Choupo-Moting.  Cameroon and Serbia will now have to watch what will happen in the match between Brazil and Switzerland, waiting for the last day, in which in any case they will be forced to seek victory.

This was almost like a “Serie A game”  with many players from Serie A in both teams.  Serbia started with five Serie A players in the starting eleven and six other players from this championship sitting on the bench. Cameroon has met Serbia for the first time in all competitions since the Serbs won a 4-3 friendly in June 2010.

Stats before the game. Serbia lost both matches in the World Cup as an independent nation against African selections, against Ivory Coast in 2006 (2-3) and against Ghana in 2010 (0-1). Cameroon is back from eight consecutive World Cup defeats in four editions (2002, 2010, 2014 and 2022). With another knockout he would equal the longest ever consecutive defeat streak for a national team at the World Cup, that of Mexico between 1930 and 1958 (nine defeats in a row). Serbia have lost eight of their 10 World Cup matches as an independent nation (80%), the highest defeat percentage for a team with at least 10 matches in the competition. Cameroon averages 0.8 goals per match at the World Cup (18 goals in 24 games), the lowest of any nation with at least 20 matches in the competition. Cameroon have failed to score in five of their last eight World Cup matches, finding just three goals in total.

🏆👉 Lineup Cameroon (4-3-3) – Epassy; Collins Fai, Castelletto, Nkoulou, Tolo; Anguissa, Kunde, Hongla; Mbeumo, Choupo-Moting, Toko-Ekambi.

🏆👉 Lineup Serbia (3-4-2-1) – V.Milinkovic-Savic; Milenkovic, Veljkovic, Pavlovic, Zivkovic, Lukic, Maksimovic, Kostic; Tadic, S.Milinkovic-Savic; Mitrovic.

There is a first senior call-up for 16-year-old Udinese forward Simone Pafundi, and for Juventus midfielders Nicolò Fagioli (2001-born) and Fabio Miretti (2003-born). All three had already been selected by Mancini earlier in the year in a special training camp dedicated to identify young and upcoming talent in the country. Back after a year since his last call-up is Federico Chiesa, who has just returned to fitness after his left-knee cruciate ligament injury sustained last January.

Italy


==============================

Italy will be preparing for the UEFA EURO 2024 qualification will get underway, and in June the Azzurri will compete in the Nations League Final Four along with Croatia, Spain and the hosts, the Netherlands (semi-final draw to take place in January).

🇮🇹 👉 Backgroud for the games against Albania and Austria

ALBANIA VS. ITALY. Italy and Albania have previously met on only three occasions, all of them in recent times. The first game was back in 2014 in a friendly in Genova that the Azzurri won 1-0, before two clashes in the 2018 World Cup qualification stage, with Italy winning both games in Palermo and Scutari (it was the 800th game for Italy at all levels). In the dugout for Albania will be Edy Reja, the fourth Italian in the Albanian hot-seat in four meetings (two times with De Biasi, one Panucci). In total, there have been 17 games between Italy and an Italian Head Coach on the opposing side (Trappatoni four times, the only one to beat us, and Ghedin), with 14 wins for the Azzurri, two draws and a defeat. In Italy’s first-ever visit to Albania in 2017, they won 1-0 in Scutari, as the Air Albania Stadium was being re-constructed at the time; it will be the first time they will have played in Tirana.

AUSTRIA VS. ITALY. Italy and Austria have faced each other 38 times: Italy have won 18 times, drawn eight and lost twelve, but with less goals scored (51 to 57). Italy was only able to get their first win against Austria back in 1931, after previously drawing four and losing six of the opening ten games between the sides. From 1962 onwards, things got rather better for the Azzurri as they conjured up eleven wins and three draws, remaining unbeaten to this day, 62 years in total. The last defeat came in December 1960 in a 2-1 loss in Naples. The last meeting between the two was in the round of 16 at Euro 2020, at Wembley, won 2-1 in extra-time (in that game, Austria finally broke their duck after not scoring against Italy for 1,168 minutes). This time around, it will be the Azzurri’s 15th outing in Vienna: the previous 14 were all against Austria bar one, that was against Spain at Euro 2008; their record is five wins, three draws and six losses (12/18 goals for/against). The Azzurri haven’t conceded in Vienna in their last three games (the last goal was in 1970), and are unbeaten in seven (last loss was in 1958).
