federation has been fined £65,500 by the Confederation of African

The
host nation’s governing body has also been ordered to meet the cost of
treatment for the Ghana supporters who were injured by flying missiles
during the game at the Estadio de Malabo which Ghana won 3-0.
CAF
also announced a one match suspended ground closure on Equatorial Guinea
which will only be enforced should there be further trouble during
Saturday's third-place play-off match between Equatorial Guinea and DR
Congo, which also takes place at the Malabo stadium.
Announcing
the sanctions on its website, CAF said 36 Ghana supporters were
hurt after coming under attack from home supporters, with 14 taken to
hospital. It said one of those hospitalised was under close observation. ...SkySports
