[*] no points awarded for this match, which only served as a tie-breaker to
    determine the placings of Egypt and Cameroon with respect to each other; 
    had the match been drawn, it would have had to be decided in a penalty 
    shootout, this in order to prevent arrangement beforehand; 
    if the Ethiopia vs South Africa had been drawn, or finished in a 1-goal 
    win for either team, both Cameroon and Egypt would have progressed to
    the semifinals.
