Finke not Eto’o is Lions flag bearer

At the end of the 1-0 game against Moldova in favour of the Lions, Volker Finke was left alone to receive the flag after the players all disappeared during the improvised government farewell ceremony.
The Prime Minster, Philemon Yang on the occasion handed the flag to the coach who in the company of football authorities showed it round the stadium.
    But, many still continue to wonder why the coach and not the team captain was the flag-bearer.

    The Median later learnt that the players deserted the ceremony because their captain told them no one should attend as a way of sending a message to government concerning the fees.
    While the team and government agreed on FCFA 50 million, the players’ still insist the football federation should bring its share.
    The players and the official delegation were expected to leave early Sunday morning to Brazil.
