France vs. Cameroon: Score, Reaction from 2016 International Friendly

France beat Cameroon 3-2 in an international friendly on Monday in their penultimate match ahead of the upcoming UEFA Euro 2016 tournament.

Blaise Matuidi gave the hosts the lead with a smart volley, but Vincent Aboubakar equalised just two minutes later. Another volley from Olivier Giroud ensured France would head into half-time with the lead. In the second half, Les Bleus dominated possession but created few chances, and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting shocked the hosts with a late equaliser.

Fortunately for Les Bleus, Dimitri Payet found a late winner. France will play one more friendly against Scotland on Saturday, June 4 ahead of the start of Euro 2016.
