The host nation Cameroon 🇨🇲 maintained their unbeaten run in the tournament on Monday. They finished as group leaders with seven points after three matches. The Indomitable Lions took the lead when Captain Vincent Aboubakar drilled home his fifth goal of the tournament after 39 minutes.
He drilled a low shot into the back of the net after connecting with Harold Moukoudi’s pass. The 29 year old has now scored 5 goals in the first 3 matches of AFCON 2021.
Eight minutes after halftime, substitute Garry Rodrigues drew Cape Verde 🇨🇻 level with an exceptional back heel. Despite the efforts from the hosts, they could not find the goal to secure all three points as Cape Verde held on for a well-deserved point.

Bayala’s goal was cancelled out by a penalty where Ethiopian striker Getaneh Kebede scored. This earned his side their only point of the tournament. Burkina Faso will face the runners up in Group C in the next stage.
