Algeria won their second Africa Cup of Nations trophy with a dramatic second-minute goal by Baghdad Bounedjah which guided them to a 1-0 win over Senegal in the final. Bounedjah, who had missed a penalty in the quarter-final against Ivory Coast left the mighty Senegalese in shock when his shot took a wicked deflection off Salif Sane and then looped over the bewildered goalkeeper Alfred Gomis into the net.
