Oyongo saves Cameroon, Elephants settle for point

Volker Finke's new-look Cameroon side needed a late equaliser to escape with a 1-1 draw from their CAF Africa Cup of Nations opener against Mali.

Mali led through Sambou Yatabare's 71st-minute goal but New York Red Bulls full-back Ambroise Oyongo hit back for the Indomitable Lions. Yatabare thought he had won it in stoppage time but his header was correctly disallowed for offside.
