Cameroon lost their first match 0-1 to Japan. They went with a 4-3-3 formation that was adventurous, but their side struggled to fashion any real opportunities or break down the Blue Samaurai's resolute defence. Stephane Mbia did smack the bar in the closing stages but it was a tough afternoon all round for Cameroon and their star man Samuel Eto'o, with Le Guen bemoaning the fact his side were below their best. Cameroon captain Samuel Eto'o was kept at bay for most the match. The Inter Milan striker had a quiet first half in the opening game against Japan – tightly marked at every turn – but he showed glimpses of brilliance.
“We had a lot of chances in the second half but not so many in the first but we dominated. Now we have to work. We can't make any more errors and now we have to win against Denmark," Samuel Eto'o, Cameroon captain.
Denmark lost 0-2 to the Netherlands. The Danes have now lost their last three games and have failed to score in any of those defeats. Injuries have played a big part in their demise, with star striker Niklas Bendtner and Jon Dahl Tomasson high-profile victims of the curse. With Tomasson and Daniel Jensen sidelined, Bendtner – still not 100 per cent fit after a lengthy battle with a groin problem – was called upon to lead the line against the Dutch. Morten Olsen's side could have no real complaints about the end result, as they failed to get going after the setback of a freak own goal from Daniel Agger just a minute after the break. Denmark have an unbeaten record against African opposition in the FIFA World Cup, having drawn with Senegal and South Africa, and beaten Nigeria.
“Sure, we had a couple of unlucky bounces for the Dutch goals, but instead of complaining about that we should be looking at what we did wrong. For the first goal, the header is a mistake, plain and simple, and on the second we would need to look at how the player [Eljero Elia] has got in behind on the inside of our full-back. It’s more important for us to fix mistakes like that than ask for better luck against Cameroon ,” Thomas Sorensen, Denmark goalkeeper
