Sadio Mane scored the winning penalty for the Teranga Lions to ensure they win their first-ever AFCON.

Meanwhile, after the conclusion of the 2021 AFCON, Mane was named Player of the Tournament.

His teammate, Edouard Mendy, won the best goalkeeper award as the Chelsea shot-stopper conceded only two goals during 2021 AFCON and blocked a penalty in the shootout against Egypt.

Cameroon captain, Vincent Aboubakar, won the Golden Boot after scoring a tally of eight goals in the tournament.
