LIBREVILLE (Reuters) - Cameroon coach Hugo Broos believes his methods have been vindicated as he looks to return the fallen giants to the pinnacle of the African game, an ambition that may be realised in Sunday's Nations Cup final against Egypt. Despite being in the doldrums following miserable World Cup performances in 2010 and 2014, they have defied pre-tournament predictions to reach their first continental final since 2008. "There has been a great impatience in this country to return to the glory days," Broos told reporters on Saturday. "Cameroon were always one of the leading lights of African football and in recent years they've fallen. Broos was widely criticized for his decisions ahead of the tournament, but his inexperienced side have impressed in Gabon and are one game away from winning Cameroon's first Nations Cup since 2002.
