  On Song Cameroon hope to hit right note against Egypt

Cameroon defender Alexandre Song is set to give his side a welcome boost by securing a starting place in Sunday's African Nations Cup final against holders Egypt.

Song was stretchered off after Thursday's semi-final win over Ivory Coast and skipped training on Saturday.
Cameroon's veteran coach Otto Pfister said Saturday however that the Arsenal defender will be fit to play.
"He's okay for the final," said Pfister.
Teammate Andre Bikey is a certain non starter for the Indomitable Lions after the Reading player's red card for pushing a medical officer tending one of his colleagues in the final minute against Ghana.
As the team made their way to the coach ferrying them back to their hotel, Pfister, who oversaw the training session seated like a film director on the touchline barking out the occasional order, had an emotional reunion with Nii Lamptey before getting on the team bus
The former PSV Eindhoven, Aston Villa and Coventry player was a key member of the Ghana national side coached by Pfister which made it to the 1992 African Nations Cup final, and had turned up to support his old boss.
Cameroon will be hoping their 4-2 first round defeat to Egypt was a mere blip on their Cup report card, but Stephane Mbia insisted: "We're approaching this game like any other. It's not a question of revenge, we'll do our maximum to win."
Sunday's final sees the competition's top strikers go head to head, with Cameroon's Samuel Eto'o out to add to his five-goal haul, one more than Egypt's Hosny Abd Rabou.
The man with the ultimate responsibility of muzzling Eto'o is Egypt keeper Essam al-Hadary.
The 35-year-old is enjoying a superb tournament, his heroics against the Ivory Coast in Thursday's semi-final earning him the man of the match award.
The Al Ahly star, like Mbia, is not placing too much emphasis on the result of Egypt's first encounter with Cameroon.
"That match doesn't count anymore," the keeper who was a member of Egypt's 2006 title winning side, said.
"We go into the match as the African champions and we will definitely take care that we're well-prepared. We have a lot of respect for Cameroon, like we always respect our opponent."
He suggested Egypt's powerful showing in Ghana was not all just the fruits of the Pharoah's strength and skill.
"I believe strongly in the power of cooperation, camaraderie and team spirit. Of course, we came here with a goal and we like to get the result we want."

He said he was not a fan of the match ball being used at the 2008 African Nations Cup.
"In Europe, they use the coloured ball because of visibility as it rains there a lot. But in Africa it's hot and dry. The ball is a real problem for the goalkeepers because it starts swerving when hit over a long distance."
Al-Hadary and company held a late afternoon training session at the Ohene Djan stadium, the venue for Sunday's clash.
"Inchallah (God willing), we'll win tomorrow," said in-form Ismailia striker Abd Rabou.
Egypt manager Hassan Shehata was oozing confidence.
"I have great respect for Cameroon but I'm very confident that my players will do the job as they're motivated to keep the Cup.
"Up to now they've proved they are the best - we'll continue in the same vein, working hard and hope that it will do the trick."
