Cameroon - Comoros 1: 2
The host of the tournament continues, but the applause for the humble Comoros who recorded a wonderful achievement in her first ever appearance at the African Championship and gave a formidable fight even in the quarterfinals, despite a Corona blow that left her with 18 roster players, untrained and defensive between the posts.
First goalkeeper Salim Ben Buina was injured and the other two positive for Corona, so Shaker Elhadhor, a 1.72-meter-high left-back from Ajaccio, entered the goal and proved on several occasions during the game that his choice was right.
The troubles continued to hit Comoros with traffic jams that caused the players to make the preparations on the bus, and in the sixth minute Beyunda she was also left with 10 players following the removal of the brakes Najim Abdu.
Cameroon captain Vansen Abubkar, who scored five goals in the home leg, cooked for Carl Toko Akambi in the 29th minute and found the net himself in the 70th minute.
After the first goal, Andre Onana prevented a surprising Cameron equalizer with two big saves against El Pardo Ben and Ahmed Moni, and he repeated it with two more stops after the second goal, until he succumbed to a great free kick by Yusuf Amshengana in the 81st minute.
Barely, but Cameron went up.
