Equatorial Guinea vs Guinea-Bissau

Nsue opened the scoring in the 21st minute before adding two more goals in the second half to complete his remarkable display.
He becomes the first player to score a hattrick at AFCON in 15 years, with Soufiane Alloudi achieving the last feat in 2008.
Nsue’s hat-trick also means he is the oldest, at 34 years and 110 days old, to score three goals in AFCON history.
