CAN: Cameroon hooked by Cape Verde, it goes for Burkina

Never two without three ?

Not for Cameroon, winner of its first two matches at the CAN and held in check by Cape Verde (1-1) this Monday, in Yaoundé, during the third day of the group stage.

Already qualified for the 8th before the meeting, the Indomitable Lions finished at the top of group A, ahead of Burkina Faso, who shared the points against Ethiopia (1-1) at the same time.

The Cape Verdeans keep the hope of reaching the 8th, among the best third.

It was the inevitable Vincent Aboubakar who scored the first goal of the game at the end of the first period for Cameroon, his fifth achievement in this African Cup.

Garry Rodrigues equalized shortly after the restart for Cape Verde, which decidedly does not often succeed in Cameroon.
