The second vice-captain of the indomitable Lions did not play a single minute of the won match against Sierra Leone (2-0), Wednesday, October 15, 2014, match of the 4th day of the playoffs for the AFCON 2015 in Morocco, as Volker Finke preferred Léonard Kwekeu.

The absence of Vincent Aboubakar in 11 of Volker Finke against Sierra Leone, Wednesday 15 October was a big surprise for the audience at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium.

The former cotton Sport Player, despite his three goals already in this competition was been sacrificed for the benefit of Léonard Kwekeu who gave satisfaction to Volker Finke by registering the first goal of the game. When asked about this choice in a post-match conference, Cameroon coach Volker Finke has not been explicit enough on the reasons for this choice.

"I gave confidence to 25 players, it is the business of the coach. After, there is the list of the 18 and finally, there is the classification of the eleven. Everything depends on the performance in training. We always give decisions for a player but never against a player. Today, it was the decision in favour of Leonard but, I wasn't against Aboubakar Vincent", said the German technician.

FC Porto striker was very disappointed at the final whistle, despite the victory of his team. He was however sent to warm up even before halftime. It was even known that he would replace Benjamin Moukandjo, slightly injured, but he quickly recovered and returned to the lawn. Even a few hours after the match, former Lorient striker has still not digested this treatment. Back at the Mont Febe Hotel where the lions were housed before this meeting, the Player was hardly relaxed as many of his teammates.
