Defending Africa Cup of Nations champions Cameroon stuttered to a second goalless stalemate with Benin on Tuesday during the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations Group F football match at the Ismailia Stadium in the north-eastern Egyptian city. Saturnin Allagbe replaced Fabien Farnolle in goal for Benin and produced fine saves to deny Ambroise Oyongo and Cameroon captain Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting but the Indomitable Lions again looked worryingly blunt in attack. Clarence Seedorf’s side have scored just twice in Egypt, in the opening 2-0 win over Guinea-Bissau, and their path to retaining the title grew increasingly more difficult with a wounded Nigeria now awaiting them in the next round and hosts Egypt likely facing the winner of that tie.
