Summary
- Camara aims to create new memories against France, not repeat 2002.
- Senegal's 2002 World Cup win over France is a constant reminder.
- Despite AFCON title controversy, Camara is proud of Senegal's win.

Lamine Camara is focused on creating new World Cup memories as Senegal prepares to face France, aiming to forge their own path distinct from the iconic 2002 upset victory.
Camara acknowledges the constant reminders from El-Hadji Diouf about the 2002 triumph but emphasizes his team's ambition to write their own history.
Despite a recent Africa Cup of Nations title controversy, Camara remains proud of the victory, stating it was the best moment of his career and nothing has changed for him.
Having developed significantly in France's Ligue 1, Camara sees the match against France as a significant opportunity to test his team's capabilities against top talent.
Camara, who hails from the Casamance region, draws inspiration from fellow local legend Sadio Mane and is committed to his footballing journey with dedication and focus.
