The 2000 African Cup of Nations Final was a football match that took place on 13 February 2000 at the Lagos National Stadium in Lagos, Nigeria, to determine the winner of the 2000 African Cup of Nations, the football championship of Africa organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

Cameroon won the title for the third time[1] by beating Nigeria 4–3 on penalties.[2]

Match details

The first goal was scored after a foul on Patrick Mboma which led to a free kick that was utilized by Samuel Eto'o in the 26th minute. In the 31st minute, Mboma capitalized on a through pass from Eto'o to double the lead, nutmegging Nigerian goalkeeper Ike Shorunmu in the process.

Cameroon continued to press for most of the first half, and hit the post on an occasion. Surprise selection, Raphael Chukwu placed a low level shot at the back of the net to reduce the deficit to one before halftime. Then Okocha scored a long range shot to even the scoreline. Eto'o attempted to put Cameroon ahead again, but had his shot hit the sidebar. One of the substitutes, Tijani Babangida also had a finely placed shot on target saved by Cameroon, goalkeeper, Bouker. Victor Ikpeba had a long range header go off target. The game was eventually decided on penalties with Cameroon emerging victorious.[3]
