Team news
Karl Toko Ekambi is certain to lead the line again for Cameroon following his heroics in the semi-final against Gambia.
Cameroon have no injury worries to contend with and should start with the same XI they used in their win over the Scorpions last week.
Egypt, however, won’t have Hamdi Fathi on the pitch after he injured himself in the las-16 win over Ivory Coat.
Akram Tawfik is also injured, but Egypt have star man Mohamed Salah ready team from the front and inspire them to Sunday’s final.
