A substitute in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations final, he headed in Moukandjo's cross on 59 minutes to level against Egypt, before Aboubakar won it in the 88th minute. It gave Cameroon a fifth continental title, and it sits alongside the captaincy he was handed in 2012, appearances at the 2010, 2014 and 2022 World Cups, the 2011-12 Coupe de la Ligue with Marseille, and two selections in the Ligue 1 team of the year. Career record: 83 caps and 2 goals for Cameroon; club career at AS Monaco, Olympique de Marseille, Torino.
