The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has imposed a $15,000 fine on the Ghana Football Association (GFA) due to fan trouble during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The incident occurred during the Black Stars’ opening group game against Cape Verde at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium.
According to the GFA, two groups of Ghanaian supporters engaged in a scuffle at half-time, leading to the use of tear gas.
CAF’s Disciplinary Board decided on the fine after examining the facts. Ghana, on the other hand, ended the group phase without a win, drawing 2-2 with Mozambique.
The result puts Ghana’s chances of progressing in jeopardy.
