Cameroon survived Burkina Faso scare to win 3rd place in Afcon 2021. As at the 67th minute it was Burkina Faso’s match to win as they were leading by 3-0. But Cameroon came back in superb fashion, levelling up 3-3 within 20 minutes including scoring 2 goals within 5 minutes. The game went straight into penalties after regular time and Cameroon triumphed 5-3 to claim Bronze.

 Burkina Faso had themselves to blame for the defensive and goalkeeping errors which led to those goals.

It was the same problem they had with Senegal when they lost 3-1.

For Cameroon it was a successful tournament even though they won’t lift the Afcon trophy this time around. Vincent Aboubakar is set to become the highest goal scorer 8 eight goals.
