The Cameroonians were the first African team ever to make it to the quarterfinals of the [[FIFA World Cup]], having beaten [[Colombia]] 2–1 in 1990, only to be defeated by [[England]] 3–2. [[Ghana]]'s Black Stars, named after the Black Star of Africa on the Ghanaian flag, would achieve this feat in 2010 on their home continent (specifically in [[South Africa]]), but unfortunately lost to [[Uruguay]] on penalties after a scandalous match.
