Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o followed up his hat-trick against Angola by scoring the first goal as Cameroon beat Togo 2-0 yesterday to qualify for the African Nations Cup quarter-finals.

The Barcelona ace broke the deadlock with a superb strike in the 68th minute before setting up the second for substitute Albert Meyong Ze with five minutes left in the Group B match.

World Cup finalists Togo, with key striker Emmanuel Adebayor back in the side following his public spat with coach Stephen Keshi, went out of the tournament after losing both their opening games without scoring.

Cameroon, who surprisingly missed out on a place in the World Cup finals in Germany later this year, have a maximum six points from two games.

Other Group B result: Congo vs Angola 0-0.
