Follow all the latest updates as hosts Cameroon take on Mohamed Salah’s Egypt for a place in Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations final against Senegal.

Egypt are the most successful nation in Afcon history with seven tournament victories, but they are up against a big challenge tonight as the Cameroonian side aim to deliver glory on home soil. Cameroon topped Group A before beating Comoros in the round of 16, in a game overshadowed by a fatal crush. Toni Conceicao’s side then beat Gambia 2-0 in the quarter-finals to reach the last four, and have the tournament’s two top goalscorers so far in captain Vincent Aboubakar and Lyon forward Karl Toko Ekambi.

Egypt finished second in Group D after losing their opening game to Nigeria, but Salah scored the winning penalty to see of Ivory Coast in the round of 16 and scored against as they came from behind to beat Morocco in the quarter-finals. Follow all the Afcon action below:

15 mins: Aboubakar darts inside from the left and drives the ball into the box. He dinks it past Omar Kamal and attempts to run around the defender. Kamal holds his ground and keeps the Cameroon captain away from the ball long enough for his fellow defenders to clear the lines. Aboubakar isn’t best pleased about that defensive effort.

12 mins: Hamdi Fathy is punished for a clip on Aboubakar. Cameroon win a free kick over on the inside right channel. Ngamaleu floats the set piece into the box but Gabaski comes off his line and plucks the ball out of the air under pressure from a swarm of Cameroon forwards. Good take from the Egyptian goalkeeper.

9 mins: Fai makes an overlapping run wide on the right and whips a cross straight into the hands of the Egyptian goalkeeper Motamed Abou
