After being humiliated to a 3-0 defeat at Malabo Stadium, in the hands of a rejuvenated Ghanaian outfit, a section of Equatorial Guinea fans who were angered by the results of ongoing match embarked on throwing plastic bottles and cans at the visiting Ghanaian fans, and at the pitch. 

This archaic and shambolic act resulted into the match being stopped at the 82nd minute. It thereafter took over 25 minutes to have the game continue, but this was after unending attempts to control the rowdy Equatorial Guinea fans and guarantee the safety of the Ghanaian fans.

When the match resumed, it only proceeded for three minutes being the final whistle went off. What the Equatorial Guinea fans did was irresponsible and should be strongly condemned by any football loving person alive today. In fact, its like they took the African continent back to three decades ago. One wonders whether they thought that they had the potential to defeat Ghana, given the low quality of players they had in their fold!
