Soccer-World-Predator Eto'o seeks golden swansong

By William Schomberg June 5 (Reuters) - Samuel Eto'o proved his doubters wrong by outshining Chelsea's other strikers last season and the Cameroon captain is determined to stay in the spotlight for a while yet, despite his advancing years. But it may be tougher for the 33-year-old striker to leave his mark at the World Cup than in the English league. Few give Cameroon much chance of progressing beyond the group stage of the tournament in which they face Mexico, Croatia and hosts Brazil. Eto'o accused fellow players in the national side of not passing him the ball last year, adding to friction in the squad which has struggled to live up to the glory days of the 1990 World Cup when Cameroon reached the quarter-finals.
