Cameroon twice struck the woodwork against Egypt, with Pharaohs coach Carlos Queiroz also sent off late on, before the clash went to extra-time.
A goalless additional period followed and Egypt goalkeeper Mohamed Abou Gabal was the hero as he saved two penalties.
Seven-time winners Egypt are now into their first final since 2017 and will be looking to secure their first triumph since 2010.
Congratulations and good luck, Trézéguet!
