Match report; Cameroon 3 - 0 Atlantic Isles

The Isles went into this game with some expectation of getting a result, following a positive performance against Paraguay.

Lining up with a 4-4-2 formation, Urtzi started in place of Luisan with Dave W, Tim, Alfredo, and Txus remaining as the back for. Antonio, Pedro, Marcos, and Peter were accross the middle, with Lou having a deep role behind Chema.

In blisteringly hot conditions, the game was goalless at half-time, the Isles having the better of the game but not putting away their chances. Midway through the half, Peter was replaced by Amalio, Antonio by Gavin, and Lou with Mike, and Txus by Martin. Unfortunately the heat, tiredness, and pressure began to tell as Cameroon piled forward. Eventually the Isles' goal was breached and as an equaliser was sought, two more late goals were conceded.

So, a 3 - 0 loss was the final score, deeply disappointing in a game that could easily have gone the other way, but such is football. All that remains is to acknowledge the tremendous support given to the team by the many who can out in the heat.
