Both sides wasted good chances to win the game late on, with the final result ultimately helping neither side in the quest for qualification from the group.
"This is the life of a front player", said Cameroon coach Hugo Broos, whose team is in Russian Federation because Aboubakar scored an 88th-minute goal against Egypt to clinch the African title in February.
"Against Chile, they (Cameroon) were sitting back and hitting on the counter attack". As far as goals are concerned, the over 2.5 goals bet also makes sense since both teams can score and neither are great at defending.
The first of the two assignments appears on paper to be an more manageable prospect, though Postecoglou insisted the team were not taking Cameroon lightly, after having watched them during their successful Africa Cup of Nations campaign earlier in the year.
Australia grew into a contest starved of quality, as first Tom Rogic curled a free-kick over before Mathew Leckie blazed Gersbach's low cross above the frame of the goal.
After that game head coach Hugo Broos rued his side's uncertain start, but praised his team's fighting spirit.
Leckie said players were "tired and sore" but would be up for the match.
The Soceroos were then awarded a penalty on the hour mark when Alex Gersbach was brought down. Teed up with a clear shooting chance from eight yards (meters), Aboubakar slipped as he slid the ball wide of the net. They are very, very direct and very quick.

Australia take on Cameroon in the second game for both these sides.
"I think we did fine". "In terms of a result it's a loss and the loss falls on me".
At the end of a first half that was entertaining but largely lacking in clear-cut chances, Cameroon struck in added time when midfielder Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa latched on to a long ball over the top and lifted the ball over stranded Aussie keeper Maty Ryan.
"We'll watch them tonight".
The video assistant referee was consulted and confirmed the decision, with Milligan making no mistake with the spot-kick.
"I don't know what [Broos is] watching but from our perspective we certainly know how we want to play our football", he said.
The next came in a lightning break that saw Mabouka surge down Australia's left hand side but when the ball was met by Aboubakar just six metres out he couldn't control his shot and it flew over the bar.
