Guinea started positively and managed to open the scoring in the 22nd minute courtesy of a strike from Yamodou Touré, 1-0.

Guinea continued to dominate the half, but could not add to the scoreline before the break.

Cameroon came out fighting in the second half and managed to pull level in the 68th minute courtesy of a striker from Zobo, 1-1.
