Cameroon blew an opportunity to clinch a berth in next year’s World Cup when it fell to Angola, 2-0. The Indomitable Lions can still clinch with a win over Togo July 1. Nigeria kept its slim hopes alive in Group B with a 2-0 win over leader Liberia. Idle Sudan also remains in contention. Morocco moved into first place in Group C with a 2-1 win over Algeria. The Lions of Atlas host Egypt June 30 in a match that should decide the group. Tunisia moved ahead of idle Ivory Coast in Group D with a 2-0 away win over Madagascar. The group should be decided when Tunisia and Ivory Coast meet May 19 in Tunis. South Africa all but clinched Group E with a 2-1 win over neighboring Zimbabwe.
