Cameroon sets up an epic clash in the finals with Ghana after edging out Nigeria 2-0 in the second semi-final game at the Africa Youth Championships.

Sunday’s final would be the second time both sides are meeting in the competition after playing each other in their opening group A match which ended 1-1.

Ghana ended a long-wait for another title as the Black Satellites survived a South African comeback to win the seven-goal semi-final thriller 4-3 in the first semi-final game.

Goals from Dominic Adiyah, Andre Ayew and a brace by Ransford Osei helped Ghana overcome the Amajita at the Amahoro stadium.

The Black Satellites, two-time winners in 1993 and 1999, who last made it to the finals of the competition in 2001 are seeking a treble.

Nigeria and South Africa will slug it out for the bronze medal on Saturday.
