\"NehruNew Delhi<\/strong>: Every alternate minute your eyes move up towards the sky. Back in your mind you start debating as to when did it last pour with such a rage in the Capital. But as National Coach Wim Koevermans<\/a> puts it: \u201cThere\u2019s nothing you can do about the Weather. It\u2019s not in anyone\u2019s hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still your eyes try to measure the clouds; it\u2019s the human mind after all. In a desperate attempt to find more, you turn to the internet. There, it\u2019s worse as it\u2019s expected to pour in the next 10 days.<\/p>\n

Courtesy the weather, attacks didn\u2019t pour against Nepal in the last match. \u201cNepal adjusted better than us,\u201d was Koevermans\u2019 assessment. A strong and sturdy Cameroon wait next, in what is a dress rehearsal for the final.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have come to India to show to you all what football in Cameroon is all about. We have mesmerised the World with our brand of football. We want India to have a feel of it too,\u201d Cameroon\u2019s Coach Emmanuel Bosso<\/a> echoes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndia are a strong side but Cameroon are stronger; in fact, the strongest in this Tournament,\u201d Maldives Coach Istvan Urbanyi maintains. \u201cForget their physical presence, they are much stronger tactically and technically,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n

Koevermans complements Urbanyi. \u201cCameroon are surely a very strong side. They are capable of playing good football and that\u2019s already on display,\u201d he admits. \u201cThe match will be interesting. We play Cameroon twice and the final stays the more important one,\u201d he goes on. \u201cThe last Group League match gives us a chance to have a look more at our bench.\u201d<\/p>\n

Does that mean that you will be blazing all guns against India? Bosso sidesteps the query. Instead he reflects that Roger Milla will be coming to cheer for them from the stands. \u201cHe is our Football Ambassador. He had promised that we will come to cheer for us if we make it to the Final. We are all waiting for him,\u201d Bosso informs.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut India have some good players. The No. 6 (Lenny Rodrigues<\/a>) has impressed me a lot. He can play around in the midfield and stays a potent force. Also, the Captain (Sunil Chhetri<\/a>) and the goalkeeper (Subrata Pal<\/a>) are key members. But we have our plans,\u201d Bosso quips.<\/p>\n

Urbanyi has more to add: \u201cIf you consider the physical ability, speed and endurance, Cameroon are way ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the Jaypee Greens, Koevermans takes out his drawing board and explains to his wards. The shape and organisation and the \u2018adjustments,\u2019 it\u2019s understood will hold the key.<\/p>\n
