2. Cameroon

Cameroon have no right figuring so highly in our rankings after their shambolic World Cup performance. The Indomitable Lions left with three points, shipping nine goals and scoring but a solitary one. But their recovery under Volker Finke has been nothing short of remarkable. Finke effected a change in personnel after the debacle, turning to youth and discipline, and away from starpower and ego. The newer, more direct style of play has quickly re-instated Cameroon as an elite continental force. Their attacking arsenal was on display in a 4-1 win against Cote D’Ivoire. For that, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Clinton N’Jie, Vincent Aboubakar deserve credit. They are impressionable talents who have bought into Finke’s philosophy and converted the goalscoring chances that came their way.
