FIFA World Cup 2022: Cameroon snatch a point in thrilling 3-3 draw with Serbia | Football News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: A six-goal thriller, and undoubtedly one of the matches of the 2022 FIFA World Cup so far, brought fans to the edge of their seats as Cameroon overturned Serbia’s two-goal lead to snatch a 3-3 draw in a crucial Group G match on Monday.
Jean-Charles Castelletto‘s 29th-minute goal put Cameroon ahead, only to see two stoppage-time goals in the space of less than two minutes from Strahinja Pavlovic and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, which gave Serbia a 2-1 half-time lead.

Aleksandr Mitkovic then made it 3-1 for Serbia after the break. However, Cameroon punched right back to score two goals within three minutes of each other to bring the game back on level terms.
First it was the substitute Vincent Aboubakar, who struck in the 63rd minute with a chip over the Serbian goalkeeper. The offside flag was raised, but the decision was sent up for video referral. The off-side was overruled and the check-goal awarded.
The Serbian lead was cut down to 2-3.
Just over two minutes later, in the 66th, Eric Choupo-Moting found the back of the net to make it 3-3.
The draw keeps both teams still in contention, pending other results, in the race to knockout rounds.
