[contextly_sidebar id=”rwiQdvfYBtWBiUJGLGjN3FdHmqCZAyVQ”]The statement from the continent\u2019s governing body also noted that Equatorial Guinea will \u201cplay their next game behind closed doors\/in camera and without spectators. However, to promote a spirit of Fair-play and brotherhood during the AFCON2015, the Disciplinary Panel decided to suspend the match behind closed doors provided that spectators were not guilty of such an offense in the 3rd\/4th place classification match.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the event of a repeat of identical incidents during the classification match on 7 February 2015, the disciplinary panel of CAF will automatically impose the sanction of playing behind closed doors the Equatorial Guinean team’s next official match.<\/p>\n
