The match between China and Cameroon in the top 16 round on Sunday here is promosed to be one of the most-watched games as China, one of the best defensive teams, try to stop one of the best attacking teams.

As the only African team left in the tournament, Cameroon surprised the world with their high-rated matches by crushing Ecuador 6-0 and defeeating Switzerland 2-1, only losing 2-1 to the defending champions Japan in the group stage.

Cameroon shot 61 times in three matches, including 20 shots against Japan, and are ranked second only behind Germany after the preliminary round.

Adopting tactical of 4-2-1-3, Cameroon are abundant with quality forwards like Gaelle Enganamouit, Gabrielle Onguene and Ngono Mani.

Top scorer Enganamouit, who scored three and assisted one, is the most aggressive forward in the tournament, shooting 20 times in three matches to rank first in all players of 24 teams.

The 23-year-old Eskilstuna United star played left, center and right respectively in three matches, scoring a hat-trick against Ecuador, and winning the love of fans with her powerful charge and brave drive.

The 153-cm high Onguene is the best partner with Enganamouit in the front as she scored twice and assisted twice to produce the most energy.

While the 31-year-old Mani, who scored 40 goals for Cameroon, scored twice with only six shots as a substitute to provide the efficiency and experience to the attacking trio.

"We will not play one-on-one with them. Cameroon played physical games and every member of the team could drive and attack," China's center defender Zhao Rong said after Friday's practice. "But I don't think they are a team of discipline and we'll beat them with our well-organized defence."

None of the Chinese girls consider Cameroon as a low-key opponent.

"We spent lots of time to watch the video of Cameroon. We have never played them but we knew it's a good team," right back Han Peng said. "I think China is a better team and football is a team work sport."

"We are not here to have fun. We want to win, and this is the game we always want," Han added.
