Cameroon booked a mouth-watering Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final showdown against Morocco after edging South Africa 2–1 in a dramatic knockout encounter. The Indomitable Lions showed their trademark resilience, bouncing back in style to keep their AFCON dream alive and reassert their pedigree on the continental stage.
Cameroon Respond with Championship Mentality
South Africa struck first and threatened to derail Cameroon’s campaign, but the five-time African champions refused to panic. Cameroon grew into the contest, increasing their tempo and physical presence as the game progressed, forcing South Africa deeper into their own half.
Their persistence was rewarded with a well-worked equaliser that shifted momentum firmly in their favour and ignited belief among the Cameroonian players and fans.

Late Winner Seals the Comeback
As the match entered its decisive stages, Cameroon found the breakthrough they had been pushing for. The winning goal sparked wild celebrations on the touchline and in the stands, underlining the emotional weight of the moment for a side determined to reclaim its place among Africa’s elite.
South Africa pushed forward in search of an equaliser, but Cameroon’s defence stood strong to see out the result and secure a famous comeback victory.

South Africa Exit with Pride
Despite the defeat, South Africa national football team can take pride in a competitive AFCON campaign. They matched Cameroon for long spells and showed tactical discipline, but were ultimately undone by Cameroon’s experience and efficiency in key moments.
Quarter-Final Showdown Awaits
With the 2–1 victory, Cameroon national football team advance to the AFCON quarter-finals, where they will face Morocco national football team in one of the tournament’s most anticipated fixtures.
