Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions Take A Knee In Support Of ‘End Anglophone Crisis’
November 13, 2020 | Cameroon national team, Indomitable Lions, showed a rare support for “End Anglophone Crisis” movement on Thursday.
Ahead of kickoff against visiting Mozambique in the 2022 AFCON qualifiers at Stade de la Réunification in Douala, the players took a knee as the national anthem played.
The scene was replayed in the 38th minute after captain Vincent Aboubakar celebrated his opener by taking a knee and pointing to the sky with both hands lifted high.
Kneeling on one knee (taking a knee) before sporting events by athletes has been used as a sign of protest against racial and other injustices especially in the US.
