How was the Africa Cup of Nations?

16 min • 7 februari 2022

It was billed as a shoot-out between Sadio Mané and Mo Salah… and effectively that’s how it turned out. After extra-time it was still 0-0 and so another match went to a penalty shoot-out, and it was Mané who became the man of the moment, taking the final penalty to win the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations for Senegal, depriving Salah’s Egypt of the trophy. Hosts Cameroon came third. Senegal claimed the title for the first time, while Mané took the player of the tournament. But the past month also saw tragedy, as 8 people died and 38 others were injured in a crush at the newly-built Olembe Stadium in Yaounde, ahead of a Cameroon match.

Alan Kasujja looks back on the tournament with BBC Africa Sport’s Nick Cavell, and Cameroonian journalist, Njie Enow.
