Heroic Mohamed Abou Gabal saves two in shoot-out to send Egypt to final at expense of hosts Cameroon
A heroic performance from a clearly injured Mohamed Abou Gabal in the Egyptian goal sent his country through to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations as he saved two penalties in the shoot-out. In an attritional first half where Cameroon were on top, the tournament hosts almost took the lead in the 17th minute through Michael Ngadeu, but his looping header from a corner crashed off the post.
