As the hosts partied, fist fights started between the rival players with both benches at one stage laying into each other in unseemly scenes. Amazingly no players or officials were shown red cards. “In my 15 years as a player and 30 as coach I’ve never seenanything like it, ” Tunisia coach George Leekens told reporters. “Today’s result was forced. The referee made a huge error and we did not deserve that. ”His counterpart Esteban Becker avoided questions about thelegitimacy of Equatorial Guinea’s win. “Refereeing decisions are a normal part of football, ” he said. Tunisia were the better side in a game that had niggle almost from the start and made the breakthrough when Yassine Chuikahoui swept the ball out wide for Mohamed Ali Yakoubi to deliver a cross to Akaichi, who stole in behind the defence and finished. As the game headed into five minutes of stoppage time, an innocuous looking challenge from Hamza Mathlouthi on Ivan Bolado saw the referee award a penalty that put Equatorial Guinea back in the contest.
