He wrote, @Cameroon’s win last night and the fact that we’ve secured the last spot in the #ConfedCup reminded me of 2003, when we had a great campaign but also a big loss. We will always remember you, Foé! Now Cameroon is back in #ConfedCup and I am sure this team will do their best to make you proud, wherever you are. #tbt #rip #playforfoe.”
