Denmark has managed to beat Cameroon in the second round of matches in Group E, practically leaving no hope to the African team for qualifying to the Group of 16.

Cameroon's star Samuel Eto'o opened in the 10th minute for 1:0 but the Danes managed to turn things around with Nicklas Bendtner and Dennis Rommedahl scoring in the 33rd and 61st minute. Rommedahl also passed for Denmark's first goal.

The spectators in Pretoria witnessed a very dynamic and rather equal game in which both Cameroon and Denmark missed a lot of goals.

The Netherlands are in the lead in Group E with 6 points after beating Japan earlier on Saturday. Japan and Denmark each have 3 points.

The Netherlands is playing Cameroon in the last round of the group phase of the World Cup, while Denmark is facing Japan.
