<P> Cameroon were undoubtedly the surprise package of the tournament . In their first match, they shocked Diego Maradona's defending champions Argentina 1--0 through a goal by François Omam - Biyik, despite finishing their match with nine men . In their next match, they defeated Romania 2--1 thanks to two goals from 38 - year - old substitute Roger Milla . These were Milla's first official goals in the World Cup; he had had a goal against Peru wrongly disallowed for offside during the 1982 FIFA World Cup . Having already qualified for the next round, Cameroon then suffered their first loss (after three draws and two wins) in World Cup history, losing 0--4 to the already eliminated Soviet Union . In the second round, Cameroon defeated Colombia 2--1, with Milla again coming on as a second - half substitute to score twice, famously dispossessing Colombian goalkeeper René Higuita for one of them . By this time, Roger Milla, his post-goal celebrations, and Cameroon had firmly implanted themselves in the global footballing consciousness . In the quarter finals, they were seven minutes from qualifying for the semi-finals when England were awarded a penalty . England won the match 3--2 after extra time, with three of the five goals coming from penalties (1 for Cameroon, 2 for England). </P> <P> 40 African countries entered the qualification process for 3 spots at the 1994 FIFA World Cup . The extra spot was awarded after the strong performances of Cameroon and Egypt at Italia 90 . However, only 28 played all their matches after FIFA rejected Libya (due to UN sanctions) and 11 other nations withdrew at various stages . There was a new qualification format, with two group stages . The big casualty of the first stage was 1990 finalists Egypt, as crowd trouble in Cairo turned a 2--1 home victory over Zimbabwe into a crucial 0--0 draw when FIFA ordered the match replayed at a neutral location . </P> <P> In the new second stage of qualification were three groups of three, with winners qualifying for the World Cup . The Super Eagles of Nigeria won Group A on goal difference, beating both Côte d'Ivoire and Algeria 4--1 in Lagos . In Group C, Cameroon won the group with 3 wins and a loss away to second placed Zimbabwe, with Guinea coming third . </P> <P> In Group B were Morocco, Senegal, and Zambia . In the first match, Morocco beat Senegal 1--0 . In the second match, Zambia were to face Senegal in Dakar . However, the plane carrying the Zambian team crashed en route on 28 April 1993 . The crash, attributed to mechanical problems and pilot error, killed all thirty people on board, including nearly the entire football team--18 players--and coaches, support staff, and plane crew . (The Zambian government had yet to release a report on the investigation of the crash of the military plane even ten years later .) Only two European - based players from the original squad missed the flight--Charles Musonda of Anderlecht, who was injured, and captain Kalusha Bwalya, who was flying in from Europe where he played with PSV Eindhoven . All matches in the group were postponed for a month . Zambia hastily put together a new team, captained by Bwalya, and defeated Morocco 2--1 in Lusaka in the first match with the new team with goals from Kalusha Bwalya and Johnson Bwalya (not related). However, they lost their final group match 0--1 to Morocco in Casablanca and Morocco won Group B by one point . Amazingly, the rebuilt Chipolopolo (Copper Bullets) also went on to reach the finals of the 1994 African Cup of Nations . </P>
