In this episode, music from Cameroon is connected to football in one way or another.
While searching for music for this episode, the FIFA World Cup was in full swing. The result is a programme featuring the famous football song Zangalewa, two tracks about the football club Canon Sportif de Yaoundé, and music by namesakes of French striker Kylian Mbappé and Cameroonian goalkeeper André Onana.
But once you turn over the LP featuring Zangalewa, the football fever disappears.
