It was a tense and difficult match as expected but in the end, Egypt beat Cameroon on penalties to book a final with Senegal.

The game was goalless after 120 minutes of football but Egypt would have scored in the 117 minute when a low cross just flew across the Cameroon goal post without any Egyptian striker to tap the ball in.

Cameroon gave a very good account of themselves in the match. They also had their chances.

In the end the game was settled through a penalty shootout. Egypt won 3-1 on penalties.

Cameroon will now play Burkina Faso for the 3rd position.
