Ivory Coast and Cameroon remain tied at 0-0 after the opening forty-five minutes of their highly anticipated Group B clash at the AFCON U17. Despite the lack of goals, both teams delivered an intense and entertaining first half with a high rhythm and constant pressure in midfield.
Ivory Coast tried to control the tempo through quick passing combinations and technical movement, while Cameroon answered with aggressive pressing and rapid attacking transitions.
Neither side truly managed to take control of the match, as the balance remained almost perfect throughout the first period. Cameroon looked dangerous whenever space appeared behind the Ivorian defense, while the Young Elephants searched for openings through patient build-up play.
With possession shared evenly and chances remaining limited, the second half now promises a decisive battle where one moment could completely change the outcome of the match.
