Vincent Aboubakar scored two minutes to time as Cameroon erased an early deficit to win the Africa Cup of Nations final 2-1 over Egypt on Saturday.

Mohamed Elneny had put Egypt ahead on 22 minutes, only for Nicolas N’Koulou to equalise before the hour mark.

And just as the game appeared headed toward extra time, Aboubakar delivered a fine strike to give Cameroon their first continental title in 15 years.
