Upset of the day: Cameroon national team fails to defeat Eswatini, ranked 159th by FIFA


Today marked the start of the 5th round of the final stage of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Africa. And today's matches brought one very loud sensation.
Details: The Cameroon national team, traditionally considered one of the strongest on the continent, unexpectedly failed to defeat the Eswatini national team away.
Eswatini's squad lacks any players who play outside Africa, while Cameroon features stars like Andre Onana, Bryan Mbeumo, and many other renowned footballers.
However, the match ended in a sensational 0-0 draw. This game became one of the greatest successes in the history of the Eswatini national team, which is ranked only 159th by FIFA.
Cameroon remains the leader of Group D with 9 points, but risks losing the top spot if Libya defeats Angola or Cape Verde overcomes Mauritius.
