Cameroon head coach Alain Djeumfa says her side did their best despite suffering a 3-1 defeat to the Netherlands in a Women's World Cup game on Saturday.
The Indomitable Lionesses were smarting from a 1-0 loss to Canada in their opening game, but still failed to bounce back against the Europeans in Valenciennes.
A brace from Vivianne Miedema as well as Dominique Bloodworth's goal helped the Dutch progressed to the last 16 at the expense of the Africans, despite Gabrielle Onguene's effort.
After the defeat at Stade du Hainaut, the gaffer insists he was satisfied with his side's performance as hopes for a better showing against New Zealand.
