Africa Cup of Nations semi-final marred by crowd trouble

By , Editor |
The Africa Cup of Nations semi-final between Ghana and host country Equatorial Guinea is suspended in the 82nd minute due to crowd trouble.

The Africa Cup of Nations semi-final between Ghana and host country Equatorial Guinea has been marred by crowd trouble towards the closing stages of the match.

Ghana were cruising towards the final of the competition with a 3-0 lead when play was stopped in the 82nd minute due to missiles being thrown by the home supporters.

A number of Ghanaian fans were trapped by the side of the pitch after officials had attempted to lead them out of the ground for their own protection.

There was also trouble at half time as fans allegedly threw bottles and stones at the Ghana bench, forcing the Black Stars to remain on the field before being shielded down the tunnel by riot police.

A number of attempts to restore order, including from the Equatorial Guinea players pleading with their own supporters, were unsuccessful, leaving the continuation of the match in doubt.

Ghana will be due to face Ivory Coast in the final of the competition on Sunday.
