France vs. Cameroon: Date, Time, TV Schedule and Live Stream for 2016 Friendly

France face Cameroon on Monday at Stade de la Beaujoire, Nantes, France, in their penultimate international friendly ahead of the 2016 UEFA European Championship starting June 10th.

Cameroon, meanwhile, face Mauritania in an Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier on June 3rd. The Group M table-toppers played their last match—a 0-0 draw with South Africa—in late March.

Here are the viewing details and a closer look at what to expect from these two sides:

Date: Monday, May 30

Time: 8 p.m. BST/3 p.m. ET

Preview

Per Soccerway, the teams have previously met on two occasions in their history in 2000 and 2003. The sides drew 1-1 in their first meeting before Thierry Henry struck an extra-time winner in a 1-0 victory in the Confederations Cup.

France will be without a cluster of key personnel in defence for the upcoming friendly and beyond, with Barcelona defender Jeremy Mathieu the latest international unavailable because of a calf injury. Lyon’s Samuel Umtiti has replaced the versatile centre-back in the squad.
