Christiane Mbida halved the deficit for Cameroon midway through the second half but South Africa's Portia Modise put the tie beyond the Cameroonians with her 79th minute strike.

Nigeria 3-1 Mali

Hosts Nigeria were the first team through to the final after their 3-1 victory over Mali on Sunday.

Although the Nigerians conceded their first goal of the tournament en route to victory, Mali's lone strike was just one of two chances they had throughout the tie.

In contrast, the hosts fired 19 shots at Malian goalkeeper Bamba Djeneba and scored on three occasions.

Nigeria will approach Thursday's final in buoyant mood, knowing they have scored 16 goals in four games.
