The Cameroon Lionesses strategize at Coventry Stadium, hoping to grab one win! |
Still recovering from my trip to Coventry. But I must give one last shout-out to the Lionesses of Cameroon. Tough to say, but I watched the physically fit but tactically lacking Cameroon women's football team take another tough loss, as they wrapped up their 1st ever showing at the Olympic Games. The Coventry stadium was full of green, red and yellow colored outfits, mostly Cameroon fans hoping they could grab one win against the New Zealand women's team. Unfortunately, the Lionesses only had brave hearts last night and no brave plays! They lost the match 3-1 and that officially put them out of the competition. Tough loss but lets hope there will be lessons learned! Du Courage mes soeurs!
