The semi-final clash between Equatorial Guinea and Ghana at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations was suspended for sometime due crowd disturbances.
Soccer lovers took to Twitter to express their frustrations at the ugly scenes that took place at the Stadium in Malabo.

Disgraceful behaviour by Equatorial Guinea supporters. Waiting to hear CAF has to say about this. Honestly — akwasi sarpong (@akwasisarpong) February 5, 2015
This will be all the over the news, tarnish what’s been a good tournament. Then we will complain we are wrongly portrayed by western media

This blatant indiscipline by fans in Equatorial Guinea unacceptable! It’s backward, embarrassing & a case of chronic lack of civilisation! — Richard Sky (@RichardDelaSky) February 5, 2015
What a waste of Equatorial Guinea’s investment in football facilities to host international football events!!

This reminds me of when there was a blackout in Kumasi a couple of years ago. I’m half expecting Koku Anyidoho to say ‘heads will roll’!

This is what I picked up off the pitch (mirror, broken plate, stone – one of 100s). Truly shameful. Why? #AFCON2015 pic.twitter.com/UUTSDNj0Tz

Man… I hate to admit it, but sometimes it’s difficult to defend “Africans”.

Sad part is I’m watching the game on an european channel. Rest of Europe must be thinking “see these animals…”

Huge respect to #Ghana players & fans. Kept their cool in horrendous conditions. Another reason they deserve to be in the final. #AFCON2015

#EQG fans who had no hope for their team’s progression in Afcon 2015 have resorted to thuggery because of a semi final loss. Smh

But Equatorial Guinea fans are really an apology. This kinda conduct has no place in civilization. Utterly disgraceful. #Afcon2015

This looks like a West Ham v Millwall game in the 1970s!

This is embarrassing

This is disgraceful. Does that mean that a match cannot be lost? This has damaged Equatorial Guinea’s reputation irreparably. #AFCON2015

Unruly Equatorial Guinea fans risk losing any honor their country might gain from this tournament. Sad. #CAN2015
