What drama!

Nigeria will now meet the winners of the last-16 tie between hosts Egypt and South Africa in the quarter-finals on Wednesday.

Cameroon are going home.

Thanks for your company.

The holders are out!

Pinball inside Nigeria's penalty area!

The Super Eagles just about get away with it.

Nigeria eat up a few more seconds by replacing Alex Iwobi with Leon Balogun.

Three minutes of added time!

Two minutes of normal time left.

Holders Cameroon need something special. They are running out of time!

That was Odion Ighalo's last touch.

He has been replaced.

Meanwhile, Cameroon's Pierre Kunde is lucky to escape a red card after hacking down an opponent. He has already been booked.

Was that over the line?

Cameroon keeper Andre Onana somehow claws the ball away after Odion Ighalo's header.

The referee waves play on and Ighalo cannot believe it has not been given.

Now that would have been special! Onana races out of his goal, dribbles the ball forward and launches a pass to Bahoken whose control lets him down - a better touch and it was a chance.

Ten minutes remaining!

Thumbs up if you think Nigeria will see this out.

Thumbs down if you think Cameroon will get a late equaliser.

Odion Ighalo is denied his hat-trick by Andre Onana after Samuel Chukwueze's pass. Cameroon are just about hanging on.

Cameroon look stunned.

After 62 minutes they were 2-1 ahead and looking comfortable.

Four minutes later they were left picking up the pieces.

They're desperately looking for an opening to stay in the tournament.

We have around 20 minutes left on the clock - and this game is living up to its billing at least in terms of goals if not in the overall quality of the two teams.

Just over 20 minutes of normal time remaining.

Holders Cameroon are on their way home unless they can come up with another goal.

You wouldn't put it past them - this game has had everything.

Two of Africa's finest strikers are watching this game from the stands - Cameroon's Samuel Eto'o and Nigeria's Kanu.

I am wondering if they are both wishing that they were on the pitch and adding a little attacking quality to the proceedings. Kanu was the one smiling but that grin has now switched to Eto'o's face!

Ahmed Musa goes down inside Cameroon's penalty area after a challege by Collins Fai but the referee is not interested.

To be honest, there were no appeals from Nigeria.

The Super Eagles need to do something - there is just over half an hour of normal time remaining.

Georges Mandjeck is the latest Cameroon player to be booked as the tally of bruising challenges rises.

How did that stay out?

Cameroon go so close to extending their lead after Nigeria's defence again fails to react to a quickly taken set-piece.

This time Pierre Kunde's free-kick finds Clinton Njie whose attempted pass comes off a Nigeria shirt and looks to be heading over the line before Daniel Akpeyi sticks out a big hand to keep it out.

The Nigeria fans are doing their best to lift their team here in Alexandria. The drums, trumpets and dancing are non-stop.
