Vincent Aboubakar earned his side a memorable late win against Brazil with a stunning header on Friday evening, before receiving what must be the most kind-hearted red card in football history.
Aboubakar scored the only goal of a largely uneventful game against Brazil with a brilliant header back across goal, before sprinting to the corner flag and ripping off his shirt in celebration.
