One of the world's most exciting and talented goalkeepers, Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, said that he was inspired to become a goalkeeper by former goalkeeper of the Cameroon national football team, Thomas Nkono. The event that inspired him so much was Cameroon's win against Argentina in the 1990 world cup that was held in Italy. Buffon was so inspired by Nkono that he did not only become a goalkeeper but also named his son after Nkono - Louis Thomas. It is so helpful to know that there was a time when Cameroon football was inspirational. It alerts us to the fact that what passes for Cameroon football today is a joke by comparison.
