  1. YELLOW CARDpublished at 41 mins

    The Gambia 0-0 Cameroon

    A bit early for that. The Gambia goalkeeper Baboucarr Gaye is booked for timewasting as he takes too long on a goal-kick. Just the 50 minutes to go.

    Sulaimon: Cameroon are gradually imposing themselves on The Gambia with the home fans roaring them on and they will score sooner than later.

    The Gambia win a free-kick in the centre circle and take their time with it. This is their chance to have a breather and reset after some relentless Cameroon attacking.

    This is the best chance so far and it should have been 1-0.

    That's also the save of the match.

    Well actually the Gambia never get out and Cameroon are so close to the lead.

    Aerial dangerman Vincent Aboubakar gets a powerful header onto a cross and it's kept out by a good reaction save from Baboucarr Gaye, who makes himself big.

    A series of Cameroon corners now. Can The Gambia hold out?

    Yes eventually as nobody gambles on a cross and Gambia get the ball.

    It's a good header. That may just have grazed the post from Aboubakar, he will disappointed that he didn't catch that and send it back from whence it came to the goalkeeper's left.

    The free-kick isn't properly cleared and Jean-Charles Castelletto's flying volley is blocked by a Gambian defender.

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 34 mins

    The Gambia 0-0 Cameroon

    Chop. Lively Cameroon winger Moumi Ngamaleu nips the ball past The Gambia captain Pa Modou Jagne near the corner flag and gets scythed down. Yellow card.

    Vincent Aboubakar is a proper threat for Cameroon. James Gomez is watching a cross comes in and suddenly the Cameroon striker loses him and powers a header just wide.

    Oh woof, Cameroon go close. The ball comes to Moumi Ngamaleu in space 30 yards out and The Gambia defence give him so much space. The Cameroon number three rifles a shot in but it flies into the side-netting. One part of the stadium thought it was in.

    That ran away from Tolo. A bit more care is needed from Cameroon in the final third.

    First shot on target but Nouhou Tolo really snatches at it as the ball gets away from him and it just rolls through to The Gambia keeper.

    Cameroon are definitely dominating now though, plenty of crosses coming in.

    Simple catch for Baboucarr Gaye from a Cameroon corner.

    Brilliant footwork by Vincent Aboubakar on the wing and he finds Cameroon team-mate Karl Toko Ekambi in the box but his shot is blocked.

    Halfway through the first half.

  16. YELLOW CARDpublished at 22 mins

    Slightly harsh yellow card as The Gambia defender Noah Sonko Sundberg barely fouls Vincent Aboubakar in midfield.

    Just the two shots so far, none on target. The Gambia will be happy with this start.

    Willem Mevius: Conditions must be tough: the players are completely soaked after 15 minutes of - to be honest - football at a pedestrian pace.

    Probably the highlight of this game was Mark Scott and Efan Ekoku discussing on BBC Two that one of the reasons The Gambia use 'The' was so they don't get confused with Zambia.

    The Gambia 0-0 Cameroon

    The first proper chance of this game and Cameroon are starting to get on top now.

    Moumi Ngamaleu crosses and Vincent Aboubakar tries to flick the ball in but it's off target. It looked like he could have just tried a normal shot there, albeit he was under pressure deom a defender.

    Actually it looks like he was offside - so wouldn't have counted.
