CameroonOnline.ORG | FIFA has officially announced the groups for the expanded FIFA Series 2026, and our very own Indomitable Lions are set for an exciting intercontinental challenge.
While the eyes of the world turn toward the 2026 World Cup, this March creates a unique stage for cross-continental friendlies. The FIFA Series is designed to break down barriers, allowing nations from different confederations to face off—teams that rarely get the chance to play each other outside of major tournaments.
Cameroon’s Destination: Australia
Pack your virtual bags, because the Lions are heading to the Asia-Pacific! Cameroon has been drawn into the group hosted by Australia. This serves as a fantastic test against diverse playing styles from Asia and the Caribbean.
The “Australia” Group:
-
Australia (Host)
-
Cameroon
-
China PR
-
Curaçao
Facing the Socceroos on their home turf will be a headline clash, while matches against China and Curaçao offer a chance for our squad to sharpen their claws and experiment with tactics against non-African opposition.
