Alex Iwobi scored the winning goal as Nigeria booked his place in Afcon's quarter-final after defeating Cameroon 3-2 in Cameroon in an exciting heavyweight battle in Alexandria.

The Arsenal striker completed a three-minute period just past the hour to overthrow Clarence Seedorf's team out of the competition after former Watford striker Odion Ighalo set the Super Eagles level tied with his second of the fight.

Cameroon had scored a brisk double just before the interval as Stéphane Bahoken and Clinton Njie canceled the opening of the Ighalo score to put them in the lead.

The Indomitable Lions lose for the first time in 10 matches of Afcon. This means that Gernot Rohr's Nigeria can now prepare for a final clash against Egypt or South Africa in Cairo on July 10th.
