Extra security will be in place for Sunday's Africa Cup of Nations final between Ivory Coast and Ghana after crowd violence interrupted Thursday's second semi-final.

The match, which saw Ghana beat hosts Equatorial Guinea 3:0, was stopped for 30 minutes as home supporters threw missiles onto the pitch.

Ghana have won the tournament four times, most recently in 1982.

In Saturday's third-place play-off, DR Congo beat Equatorial Guinea 4:2 on penalties in a match that proceeded without trouble.
