    ...none other than Egypt who beat Burkina Faso on..... penalties, of course.

    Anyway, The Pharaohs have made the Afcon final somewhat their home - 2017 will be a record-equalling ninth final, a record they hold with Ghana.

    The hero of the hour (actually 120-plus minutes to be precise) was 44-year-old keeper Essam El Hadary, who saved the crucial spot-kick from Bertrand Traore.

    So, if you think turning 30 is 'over the hill' then just look at Essam. 'Pension pot' is the last thing on his mind... '

    Hello.

    It's the second semi-final between two behemoths of African football - Cameroon and Ghana.

    In the green corner: Four-time champions The Indomitable Lions - who have yet to discover their roar in this tournament but somehow have managed to get to the semis.

    In the white corner: The Black Stars - also four-time champions and in addtion five-time bridesmaids/ushers.

    One of these two teams will be taking a step nearer to becoming a five-time winner of the prestigious tournament.

    So settle down and make yourselves comfortable because it'll probably go to penalties.
