Ghana striker Benjamin Tetteh will serve a three-match suspension after punching an opponent during a mass brawl following Friday’s 1-1 draw with Gabon at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Tensions boiled over as Ghana were enraged by a late equaliser that Gabon scored after opting not to return the ball when the Black Stars put it out of play after their midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh went down injured. After a shoving match broke out on the pitch at full-time, Tetteh took a swing at Gabon’s Aaron Boupendza and was later shown a red card by the referee.
CAF on Saturday said it had decided to suspend Tetteh for one additional match on top of his automatic two-game ban. He will miss Ghana’s must-win clash against Comoros on Tuesday. Ghana are third in Group C with just one point from two games.Read Also
Is very for Ghana
This is where I hate the genius of the African. They should have simply switched the game into boxing and competed in that as well.
Unsportsmanlike
Should be more imo, total lack of discipline and respect for the game.

No matter how angry you are don’t throw your fellow players a nasty punch, because is football and a game of love not anger
Punch on punches
I hope Ghanaian can cedis?
I sha know one way or the other, somebody somewhere would say its because Nigerians didn't watch their match..
Football it's called and not fistball
Perfect outing.
Indiscipline.

Good move. This will serve as a deterrent for other players
