HOSTS Cameroon produced an incredible comeback from three goals down before beating Burkina Faso on penalties in the third-place play-off at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Only 48 hours after their crushing defeat on penalties against Egypt in their semi-final, this time Cameroon came through a shootout to secure the bronze medal.
Burkina Faso went in front on 24 minutes when both full-backs combined as Issa Kabore crossed for Steeve Yago to fire home at the back post.
It was 2-0 on the stroke of half-time following a horrible moment for Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana.
Kabore was involved again as he got the byline on the right and Onana made a complete mess of his cross and spilled the ball into his own net.
Cameroon brought on Vincent Aboubakar at half-time but Burkina Faso went further ahead on 49 minutes when Dango Ouattara head home a third goal.
The game look finished at that point but Cameroon mounted a stirring comeback with three goals to force penalties.
