Two sides that have not faced each other at the World Cup for a decade, will square off on Monday afternoon, as Cameroon plays host-nation Brazil.
It might have taken a little while and there was a bit of controversy but the home squad got off to a solid start in beating Croatia 3-1.
The World Cup kicks off this week when the host country Brazil opens the tournament with a match against one of the two teams that will be fighting for the second spot in Group A and a place in the knock-out stage of the tournament – Croatia.
Perhaps the biggest match in Group A takes place June 13 when Mexico takes on Cameroon to determine which team could join Brazil in the knock-out stage of World Cup 2014. Mexico, Cameroon and Croatia will likely be in a heated battle for the second qualifying spot in Group A.
World Cup host Brazil will attempt to become the first home nation to hoist the World Cup since France in 1998, looking also to avenge a quarterfinal loss to the Netherlands in the 2010 World Cup.
Team Mexico heads to the World Cup in Brazil in a familiar position – with a ton of promise but questions whether or not they can advance past the Group stage.
With the World Cup less than a month away, it is time to focus on the Group stages and which teams should move on into the elimination Rounds. Group A is highlighted by host country Brazil – five-time winner of the World Cup.
