Cameroon and Australia battled to a 1-1 stalemate at the Krestovsky Stadium in Saint Petersburg, Russia, on Thursday to leave both teams in jeopardy of an early Confederations Cup exit.
"We have a programme, we train at a given time and when you arrive at the hotel and don't have dinner until 10 o'clock in the evening, it's really unpleasant", he said. "One lesson about the first game [against Germany] was that, if anything, we probably needed to concentrate a bit more on ourselves and what we are trying to achieve and not pay too much respect to the opposition".
Goalscorer Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa says Cameroon did their homework on Australia and their goalkeeper Mathew Ryan to fine effect before Thursday's 1-1 Confederations Cup draw in St Petersburg. "The best we can do is put our mind to this game and get three points".
"Therefore, I think they choose our side".
"We know how much they've developed, and we're kind of on that path now".
It was also a milestone match for the Norwegian-based youngster.
"I get up in the morning because I am obsessed with the game, obsessed with giving back to my country but, more than anything, giving back to the players I play with. If that's his opinion I don't know what he's watching", said Postecoglou.
Defender Michael Ngadeu-Ngadjui was the top scorer for Cameroon as they won the Africa Cup of Nations in January, he scored two of the team's seven goals in Gabon.
