Roger Milla was the match winner in the first round of 16 match for Cameroon against Colombia. For 90 minutes, the teams could not break through the defensive lines of the opponent decisively, but then the 38-year-old Lambada dancer struck. His two goals to 1-0 and 2-0 (106th and 109th), with Colombia's goalkeeper Higuita making a fatal loss of the ball on one of his trips outside the penalty area, which meant the end for the South Americans, whose goal was too late.
