The Young Lionesses advanced by dispatching Ethiopia with a 6-2 aggregate victory. Their first-leg clash in Yaoundé on March 8 saw a 5-2 win, spearheaded by Tazanou Ange’s hat-trick.
In the return leg on March 15, Ange struck again to secure a 1-0 victory in Addis Ababa, proving Cameroon’s attacking firepower.
Speaking after Kenya’s 5-0 aggregate win, Cheche acknowledged Cameroon’s physicality but remained confident in her team’s ability to counter it.
Olympic champion Gabby Thomas explains why she opted for a second job after finding out that there's no enough money on the track.
“Cameroon are physical and huge, but we will take it one game at a time. We need to strengthen the squad and improve our physical conditioning,” Cheche told the media.
“It’s a tough challenge, but I believe our girls have the quality to get the job done.”
Junior Starlets captain Halima Imbachi also voiced her belief in Cheche’s tactical approach, stating that intelligence, not size, will determine the outcome.
“We have been studying their games against Ethiopia, and now we are preparing mentally and psychologically,” Imbachi said.
African footballers have enjoyed massive success on and off the field. While the huge perks is a reward for hard work, some of them own luxurious private jets.
“Football is about intelligence, not just physicality, and we trust our coach to guide us to success.”
With a second consecutive World Cup appearance on the line, Kenya will be looking to execute Cheche’s game plan to perfection when they face Cameroon in the decisive qualifiers.
