Cameroon Seek Semifinal Berth against Germany

 

With just one point in two matches, African representative in the on-going Confederations Cup, Cameroon, must  win against Germany in their last group game for a chance to forge ahead in the competition

T he Germans played out a 1-1  draw with Chile in their second group outing after a 3-2 win over Australia

in their first match.

A point from today’s game against Cameroon will see Germany seal a place in the semi finals next week but defeat could see them tumble out depending on the result of the other game.

Africa Cup of Nations winners, Cameroon, were in front in their match against Australia but they were pegged back and had to settle for a point. The Lions had lost their first game against Chile -2-0 and only a win today will give them a prolonged stay in the tournament.

Group B remains delicately poised after a day of 1-1 draws that left all four teams in exactly the same positions they held on Thursday morning. More importantly, none of the quartet are yet assured of a place in the last four or consigned to elimination, though Chile and Germany remain well placed to qualify due to the three-point cushion separating them from Australia and Cameroon.

The mutual respect that exists between the joint-leaders was evident throughout a high-quality Kazan encounter in which Alexis Sanchez made history. His sixth-minute opener was the FIFA Confederations Cup’s 400th goal and, more significantly, took him past Marcelo Salas as La Roja’s all-time leading scorer.

While Cameroon and Australia remain winless and rooted to the foot of the table, neither is giving up hope of a third-match upset that could propel them into the semi-finals.

BELGIUM: Eight Emirati princesses were convicted of human trafficking by a Belgian court on Friday and were given suspended jail terms and fines in a case stemming from their treatment of servants at a Brussels luxury hotel nearly 10 years ago, their lawyer said.

“Belgian justice has appropriately assessed this case which has generated many misconceptions,” he said in a statement.
The defendants were acquitted of the more serious charge of inhuman treatment but also ordered to pay a fine of 165,000 euros ($184,000), with half the sum suspended.
The eight accused did not appear in court throughout the proceedings.
The case was brought after a servant of the family slipped out of the hotel where the women stayed for several months in 2007 and 2008 and complained to Belgian police.
