HIGHLIGHT

 


Cameroon has been crowned 2017 AFCON Champions as they defeat Egypt in the finals.

Cameroon came from a goal down to defeat the seven-time African Cup of Nations winner Egypt 2-1 in the final game of Gabon 2017 at Stade de l’Amitie in Libreville, Gabon.

Mohamed Elneny had given Egypt the lead midway through the first half but Nicolas Nkoulou equalised just before the hour mark before Vincent Aboubakar scored the winner with a brilliant finish.

It is the fifth time Cameroon have won the Cup of Nations and first since 2002.
