Clarence Seedorf has demanded more from Cameroon as the Africa Cup of Nations holder prepares to conclude their group-stage campaign against Benin.
Cameroon beat Guinea-Bissau 2-0 in its opener but then played out a 0-0 draw with Group F's other heavyweight side Ghana.
Seedorf's men are therefore not yet assured of a place in the knockout rounds and may need a result in Tuesday's group closer to make certain.
"It may not have been good for the fans and we want to do better," said Seedorf of the goalless draw against Ghana.

"But I saw two organised teams who created enough chances to have won. We never start a match to draw, we start to win, but I was satisfied with a point."
A pair of draws has kept Benin in the hunt of progressing from the group stage for the first time in its history, although a goalless draw with Guinea-Bissea was not the result it needed.
To boost its chances of qualification, it needs to register its first ever AFCON win, which would be a huge shock against African powerhouses the Indomitable Lions.
"We played a big game [against Guinea-Bissau]," Squirrels coach Michel Dussuyer said. "We did not end things as we liked and we want to win the next game."
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Benin - Stephane Sessegnon
Former Premier League star Sessegnon has yet to show his top form in Egypt, but if Benin are to upset the odds and make it through Group F their talisman will be key. Last term Sessegnon helped Genclerbirligi earn promotion from the Turkish second tier but has steel to match his skill.
Cameroon - Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa
Coming off the back of a disappointing Premier League campaign with Fulham, former Marseille midfielder Zambo Anguissa has the chance to show he deserved a £30million move to Craven Cottage. The 23-year-old has the ideal opportunity to put himself in the proverbial shop window.
