There was finally goals at the Africa Cup of Nations as Hosts Cameroon became the first team to qualify for the knockout stages of Afcon with a 4-1 demolition of Ethiopia while Burkina Faso edged Cape Verde. Catch up with the highlights here.
Cameroon 4-1 Ethiopia
It was a game that brought the tournament to life after a goal-shy first round of group matches saw a meagre total of just 12 in 12 encounters, four of which were penalties.
Back at the same Olembe Stadium in the capital Yaounde they ran riot, although only after Dawa Hotessa gave Ethiopia a shock lead.
Lyon forward Toko-Ekambi quickly headed in the equaliser and then Aboubakar added a brace early in the second half before Toko-Ekambi completed the victory.
