Cameroon must improve in attack

Stephane M’Bia is aware Cameroon must improve in the attacking third if they are to make an impact at the forthcoming FIFA World Cup.. Cameroon scored just eight goals in six games as they finished top of their group in the second round of World Cup qualifying, the second lowest of all teams to advance to the final phase in the Confederation of African Football section.. Fellow World Cup participants Ghana (18), Ivory Coast (15) and Algeria (13) all enjoyed great success up front, with only Nigeria (seven) scoring fewer goals.. Cameroon did manage to score four goals in two play-off games against Tunisia to reach the World Cup, while they netted three in their last two international friendlies with Germany and Paraguay.. But midfielder M’Bia admits Volker Finke’s men have to be ‘efficient’ up front if they are to progress from Group A, which includes host nation Brazil, Croatia and Mexico.. “It is true that we did not score often, except in the return match against Tunisia (when Cameroon won the home leg of the third round qualifier 4-1 to advance to the finals),” said M’Bia, who won the UEFA Europa League with Sevilla in 2013-14 having arrived on loan from Queens Park Rangers.. “We can still improve in that area, and we have the players to get there. I think it will get better as we work tactically. But in a competition like the World Cup, you have to be efficient..
