It was quite an entertaining first half in Moulala as Cameroon take on Gambia in the quarterfinals of the AFCON.

The host look to be the favorite to advance into the semifinals with tactical performance in the first 45 minutes, but both side fail to find the back of the net.

The Gambia fairytale was cut short when Toko Ekambi heads home his fourth goal of the competition just a minutes into the second half of the game.

The Lyon forward soon double the Indomitable Lions lead as he fire in from close range after Moumi Ngamaleu fine work from the touch line.

The goal see Ekambi move up to five goals for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, just one short of his country man Vincent Aboubakar who had score six goals.

Cameroon will now wait for the winner between Morocco and Egypt as they clinch a victory into the Semifinals.
