Defeat is not a disgrace! The African Cup of Nations dark horse has no goalkeeper available, and it takes a 1m 72 left-back cameo

A goalkeeper suit that looks ordinary at first glance, the front and back numbers are covered by tape and affixed with the word No. 3, which looks like a "dirt cannon" is rough, but what cannot be hidden is the boiling of blood. On Monday, the Africa Cup of Nations Round of 16, the first time in the final round and a drum to advance to the knockout round, the world number 132 Comoros (Comoros) although suffered a series of unfortunate events: as many as 12 professional players infected with the new crown virus, and then the army of 3 goalkeepers were unable to wear armor due to injury, to be played by the team's left-back Aradour, who is only 1.72 meters tall, and the captain was expelled for rough interceptions in the first seven minutes, and the 10 players still insisted on stubborn resistance to the host country Cameroon. Arador has made at least three magical saves, even if he ended up out 1-2, which has won the applause of the fans.

The Comoros, a small Indian Ocean country with a population of less than 900,000, was their first official FIFA-certified international tournament in 2006, but the current coach Jimmy Abdou actively lobbied discrete overseas players to be called into the army, and his combat strength has steadily increased, winning his first victory since 20 African Cup/World Cup qualifiers in 2016, and this year's more historic African Cup finals. Even after suffering two consecutive defeats in Group C, the finale scored five minutes before the end of the game, eliminated Ghana 3-2 dramatically, and caught up with the round of 16 with the best third place in the fourth group.

Unfortunately, goalkeeper Salim Ben Boina retired from the line of fire due to a shoulder injury in the brave defeat of Ghana, and the two substitute goalkeepers were unfortunately infected, among which Ali Ahamada, even if the test was negative on the eve of the game, was still unable to play because the African Football Association stipulated that players must be quarantined for at least 5 days after infection, although it was unfortunate that the black and white words had long been established, it still caused a small number of fans to shell whether they were biased in favor of the home team Cameroon.

On the other hand, the Comoros goalkeeper coach said before the game that he had found a player who had "proved his ability to play as a goalkeeper during training" until the starting list was revealed, and chaker Alhadhur, who had played for Li B Ajaccio and had never played in the group stage, was in danger and posted his No. 3 shirt number on top of the No. 16 goalkeeper shirt of moyadh Ousseni, who was originally infected with the epidemic. Unfortunately, the house leaked and rained overnight, and it took ten people to fight in just 7 minutes, although Aradur successfully broke the siege in the first half, but Cameroonian striker Abubaka hit the target goal for the first time in 29 minutes, the strength was insufficient but slightly angled, it was enough to make Allardur tie his hands,

However, the Comoros substitute goalkeeper changed sides like a god, taking the lead in blocking AbuBaka's head hammer with his foot, and then a series of high-flying low saves to block single knives and supplemental shots, even if the technique is not professional, losing a 0-2 goal does not seem to be able to quit the habit of the defender to put his hands behind him, and the whole performance has made the fans marvel. The team still had many threatening shots under the absolute disadvantage, forcing Cameroon to rely only on the goalkeeper André Onana, who had switched to Inter Milan in the next season, to turn the tide, and in the 80th minute, with a beautiful penalty cannon, it set off the final climax, enough to leave the stadium with his head held high.
