So, thanks for reading - have good nights.

Well, that's more like it. A rip-roaring game featuring two excellent goals and one all-time goal, leaves Cameroon in control of Group A. They need a draw against Gabon, while Guinea need to beat Burkina Faso - a draw and they're gone.

Zezinho gives it away in centrefield and Siani immediately feeds Tambe, to his left. He teases Dabo, moving inside then disappearing outside, but then drags his shot wide of the far post.

Cameroon are seeing this out easily.

There shall be four added minutes.

Guinea look absolutely done-in. Idrissa finds space inside the Cameroon half, but has very little support and is quickly crowded out.
89'
Nice from Toko, away from Dabo and spreading the play, but Nkoulou's cross is into traffic and cleared.
87'
Cameroon win a free-kick down the left, 25 yards out, which Toko curls in, only to pick out Cande. He won't mind.
86'
Phut, sputter, etc.
84'
Guinea need to gather themselves, but don't look capable at the moment.
83'
And well played Hugo Broos, who made a good change at half-time and whose team came out suitably fired up to retrieve a deficit.
82'
This has been a breathless game; well done all concerned.

GOAL! Cameroon 2-1 Guinea-Bissau (Ngadeu) Bassogog nashes down the right and looks to have beaten Nandio who gets back at him at the last second. But the ball then goes back to Ngadeu, who fairly shmices a finish that rips past Jonas at his near post. The Cameroon bench go absolutely nuts and join in the celebrations.
76'
Lovely from Santos, who jumps with Nkoulou and get nowhere near the ball, but it runs loose and he picks it up down the right side of the box, diddling his man with a stepover inside and a dash outside. He hits the line and thinks he's about to create the winner, but Nkoulou does very well to get back at him, blocking the cross and facilitating the clearance.
75'
Rare relief for Guinea, Mendy taking the ball on halfway, back to goal, so Teikeu rattles him from behind and the ball is sent forward. Nothing comes of it beyond wasted time, which is plenty.
74'
Moukandjo spreads wide for Oyongo, who crosses low and hard, but Rudinilson's there to spank away.
72'
Toko nudges a ball inside for Moukandjo, who looks to shimmy past Rudinilson - if he does, he's through - but the defender manages to bundle through and clear, just when he looked beaten.
