V. Aboubakar Tournament: Cameroon Leader Secured Bronze Medals for His Team © JumpStory

Cameroon eventually left nothing unsaid in the Africa Cup of Nations. The tournament hosts Cameroon defeated the Burkina Faso national team in the third-place match after an 11-meter penalty shootout and adorned their necks with bronze medals. The main time ended productively - 3:3. In this match, Cameroon had to make an impressive comeback. After 49 minutes, the tournament hosts were already losing 0:3, but at the end of regular time, the team was saved by the hero of this tournament, Vincent Aboubakar. Initially, the goal for Cameroon was scored by Stephane Bahoken, and later V. Aboubakar added a double and extended the 11-meter penalty shootout. In total, the striker stood out 8 times in this tournament, almost guaranteeing himself a golden boot after the tournament. 8 goals - the second-best result in the history of the Africa Cup of Nations. In the 11-meter penalty shootout, the Cameroonian players were precise - all players defeated the goalkeeper immediately, while Ibrahim Blati Traore from Burkina Faso failed to score in the penalty kick. Tomorrow, Senegal will face the Egyptian national team in the tournament final.
