Cameroon U17 0-0 (4-3 pens) Angola U17: Young Indomitable Lions win to set up final date with Guinea

Ten-man Cameroon stormed into the Africa U17 Cup of Nations final following a 4-3 penalty shootout victory over Angola at the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium on Wednesday.

The Young Indomitable Lions will now meet Guinea in Sunday’s final at the same venue.

It was a day of goalless regulation time action and penalty shootouts as Guinea also needed the lottery of kick-outs to beat Nigeria 10-9, following a 0-0 draw earlier in the day.

Despite losing red-carded captain captain Fabrice Ndzie Mezama just two minutes into the second half, Cameroon held their nerve to force the match into a goalless affair, before prevailing via penalties.
