Cameroon's most-capped player at the Africa Cup of Nations stepped up when his country needed him most.

On Sunday, Nicolas Nkoulou produced an equaliser after taking the pitch as a substitute in the final of the Africa Cup of Nations. The Cameroonian centre-back, who replaced the injured Adolphe Teikeu in the first half, towered above Ahmed Hegazy after Benjamin Moukandjo clipped a cross into Egypt's penalty area, and headed the ball past Essam El-Hadary.
