Cameroon's lionhearts revel in African upset

Cameroon celebrated the most improbable of victories at the Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday which coach Hugo Broos hopes will pave the way to a bright future for his team.

The Indomitable Lions came from behind to beat Egypt 2-1 in the final at Stade de l'Amitie in Libreville on goals from Nicolas Nkoulou and Vincent Aboubakar.

It was Cameroon's first title since 2002, its fifth in total, and completed a remarkable journey for a side written off before the tournament.
