Actually from the beginning there were a lot of people who didn't really pay much attention to cameroon even if you look at the votes in this thread they weren't too favored and indeed I know that the vote here is not a reference but a lot of people don't even look at cameroon now but they made it this far this

Very true, and let also get it right, Cameroon has been facing lesser nations compared the what others had to play right from the group stages. They were given this privilege because of been the host nation and this gave them advantage also as they were always among the first teams to qualify to the next stage. Home advantage, fans singing and giving you more energy, all this can make a team perform more than they usually do and as they progress they get more energy to put into their play.

If for some reason Egypt out play Cameroon then for me, that'll be the greatest disappointment in this tournament, Cameroon deserve to play the final atleast, winning it is what I'm not certain about. Egypt getting to the semi final is a surprise for me, isn't it the same Egypt that got outplayed by Nigerian. It's a disappointment we (Nigeria) went out so early in the tournament. I mean who expected such a disappointing exit.

It's true, as you said, apart from getting an advantage by hosting their opponent, it's also relatively easy and indeed the enthusiasm of the supporters also gives a pretty good thing as an injection in a spark of enthusiasm.
this will be something that is quite difficult I think because Egypt is also quite good now because there are indeed some of their individual players who can be said to be quite good even though this is a team game but it is still Salah to be one of the pillars there.
now senegal have set foot in the final and this is the decider for cameroon
