NATAL Brazil (Reuters) - Cameroon coach Volker Finke has chosen to pack his central midfield with the trio of Alex Song, Stephane Mbia and Enoh Eyong for their World Cup Group A opener against Mexico at the Dunas arena on Friday.

Song will play in front of the back four of Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Nicolas Nkoulou, Aurelien Chedjou and Cedric Djeugoue against a Mexico side that is expected to come out and attack from the start, particularly down the flanks.
