Players To Watch.
Intermediate lions captain Yves Mokoko who also doubles as captain of Canon will be key to the Canon defence as he faces his former employers. Also, former YOSA midfielder Ngong Neville will be key in the midfield of Canon and former Coton Sports forward Tombi Alemi will help burst the attack of the ten-time Cameroon Champs.
For Eding, the likes of Prince Junior Sime who scored a brace against Avion on Matchday one will be a trait to the Canon defense.
Harrison Djonkep will be another asset for the 2017 elite one champions. He has been nominated for the young player award of the year which takes place tomorrow October 29, 2022.
