After falling behind to an early Samuel Eto'o goal, Denmark hit back through Nicklas Bendtner and Dennis Rommedahl to send the Africans out of the tournament and sealing rivals Netherlands' place in the second round at the same time.
While a number of the early games at the World Cup failed to set pulses racing, this one continued the trend set over the last three days of more exciting encounters.
"This was not a game like you've seen at the World Cup so far," he told Reuters. "There were so many chances, so many mistakes.
"We were on our heels at times, we were lucky at some moments as well - those were crucial."
Despite taking the lead through skipper and three-times African Footballer of the Year Eto'o's coolly taken goal after only 10 minutes, Cameroon failed to capitalise on any more of the 23 goal attempts they also created.
"At 1-0 down we still believed, and we knew we had nothing to lose at that point," he added. "We knew we needed something from the game and we got it.
"Now we have it all in our hands in the last game against Japan."
"This is the World Cup, there are no easy teams," he said.
