Ireland vs Cameroon
Cameroon showed they weren't in Group E to make the numbers up and took the game to the Irish, hustling and pushing, switching flanks and testing Shay Given with long shots.

Cameroon vs Saudi Arabia
Samuel Eto'o finally broke the deadlock in the 65th minute, by getting onto a long pass from Geremi.

Cameroon vs Germany
With 16 bookings and two sending-offs, we were lucky that this game still had two teams on the pitch at the final whistle.
