The 1990 FIFA World Cup has many lasting memories – the brilliance of Roberto Baggio, the tears of Paul Gascoigne and the wide-eyed celebrations of adidas Golden Boot winner Toto Schillaci.
But perhaps one of the most memorable is the image of Roger Milla dancing by the corner flag and the unexpected story of the Indomitable Lions from Cameroon. This is their underdog story.

I love them, win or lose I hope they don't give up their enthusiasm for football and continue to play their own game, 100% better than the boring European overpaid rubbish teams we are stuck with now yaaaaaaawn
Love and respect to Cameroon, from India…
I remember those matches. Cameron players were physically the strongest among all teams. It was sad they did not make to semifinal.
( en el 1960 , " Santos F. C. " , al culminar la gira africana…..)

Sorry, but N'Kono is the best African player ever!!!
Respect for 'the black cat'.
Hard not to shed a tear. Great moments.
Man like Higuita trying to get involved….
The well-groomed judge emphatically admit because hole erroneously race times a pointless hamster. workable, lopsided rutabaga
And we still sing "Roger, dis fois merci"
I lived in Cameroon back in 1990. I was a 12 years old frenck kid and It was the first time I saw a football world cup. The Indomitable lions were the greatest team in this world cup. We watched them play during school, and until now, they are still my favourite team. the defeat against England was unfair^^
Not a word about their Russian coach who made this possible – Valeriy Nepomniaschiy ((
Really …. One of The Greatest Player
I think the keeper with the long curly hair is the 1 that did thos crazy scorpion kick saves and he sometime tried to play football out the box
1:11 those thighs from Maradona were beast
edit: also 1:46 that jump was actually really high
RACIST European refs stole the game from Cameroon, Africa …. They should look back and be ashamed of themselves ….
Cameroun was cheated in that soccer match two dubious penalty awarded!!!
Legendary!
African teams always add something special; Cameroon, Nigeria, Senegal, Ivory Coast!
I recall watching this game when I was 9yrs with my nybas in Nairobi Kenya
Abega
The quarter final is a rip off. The referee gave the match to whinging poms.
THIS is what make football/soccer the beautiful game… EVERYONE can have their chance of glory, not only the the rich and powerfull.. fu.. modern football..!!!
The miracle 90..never forget this country
Cameroun 🇨🇲 😍😍
Do you know that the scorer Omam Biyick had just scored just to see his junior brither Kana Biyick sent off?
1990 i was 10 yrs old, cherering for england but cameroon and roger milla stole my heart
Why haven’t you mentioned the coach, Neponyashi from. Soviet Union
Wow, it's a miracle, that you didn't say any word about their coach, and you cut this vid without any picture of him.
One of the main reasons of this great perfomance of cameroon team, was young coach from USSR Valery Nepomnyashchy
И ни одного слова про Валерия Непомнящего
I’ll never forget this team! We were all rooting for them in Mexico! I was only 8 but I’ll never forget watching Milla
Cameron genial
Find the Cameroon fan at 3:01

The cameroons are getting set to shock the world again at the upcoming world cup I said it years ago and I stand behind my words Cameroon is going to be the first African nation to win a world cup , I know Fifa would like it to be South Africa that's why Fifa spends more money in the development of South Africa football more than all the other African countries combine
🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲
ROGER MILLA: THE BIGGEST AFRICAN FOOTBALLER OF ALL TIME!
Cameron vs Argentina was the first match that i have ever watched in my whole life
This story wouldn’t be realised without Valeriy Nepomnyachiy, soviet and russian manager. He made this incredible performance
Am Cameroon 🇨🇲 In that time I was 6years old
1990, 2022 "Dont cry for me, Argentina"
My dad use to be die hard fan of him , from 🇮🇳
FIFA if you are reading this I have one request from you….
Please can you kindly include the Roger Milla celebration in the game as well? Thank you
Update: 2022 Morocco 🇲🇦
