DR Congo beat Equatorial Guinea 4-2 on penalties in the Africa Cup of
Nations third-place play-off as the match passed without any crowd
trouble.
The
hosts' semi-final against Ghana
on Thursday was halted after missiles were thrown at players and supporters.
Only a small crowd turned out at Malabo stadium, the scene of
Thursday's violence,
to see the sides draw 0-0 in normal time.
Nick Cavell, commentating for BBC World Service at the play-off on
Saturday, said there was an increased police presence around the stadium
before kick-off.
Between 3,000 to 4,000 fans attended the 15,200-seater stadium.
"The game passed off without any sign of a repeat of
the problems that marred Thursday's semi-final at the same venue," said
Cavell. ...BBCSports
