Cameroun Out of the Tournament

Due to government interference, a suspension letter was issued to Cameroun. Cameroun will not appear in any FIFA competition with immediate effect. This news was announced right after Cameroun was awarded the 3 points that placed them on top of group 1 in the World Cup Qualification tournament. This new development could actually affect Cameroun in their qualifying match against Libya on September 6.

It's been declared that neither Fecafoot nor any of its members will benefit from any FIFA or CAF development programmes, courses or training during their suspension. Also, Fecafoot cannot be represented in any regional, continental or international competition both at club level and friendly matches...

A deadline date has not been set for the normalization committee on when to elect a new Camerounian football association president while running the day-to-day business of Fecafoot. The normalization committee will be set up on the 31st of March, 2014.

Meanwhile, the much expected election must take place before Cameroun's next qualifying game or they'll be out of the competition which means that Cameroun will have no hope of qualifying for Brazil 2014.

We sincerely hope that the election takes place as soon as possible.
