Video: Cameroon 1-1 Slovakia

African giants Cameroon’s shaky FIFA World Cup� build-up continued on Saturday as they came from behind to draw 1-1 with finals debutants Slovakia in a friendly in Austria.

Enoh Eyong’s goal seven minutes from time saw the ‘Indomitable Lions’ escape with a draw after the Slovakians, who played a part in Czechoslovakia’s rich World Cup history, had taken the lead through Kamil Kopunek in the sixth minute.

Kopunek scored with a great strike from 18 metres out after being set up by Chelsea midfielder Miroslav Stoch, giving no chance to Cameroon goalkeeper Hamidou Souleymanou.

The Slovaks dominated the first-half against a Cameroon side still without their superstar striker Samuel Eto’o, who has been given time off since winning last Saturday’s Champions League title, and their defence whenever threatened held firm, superbly marshalled by Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel. The European side – who are in Group F at the finals in South Africa with defending champions Italy, New Zealand and Paraguay – could even have taken a 2-0 lead but Stanislav Sestak’s shot rattled back off the crossbar.
