The referee for Tunisia's Africa Cup of Nations last- eight tie has been banned by the Confederation of African Football.

Equatorial Guinea were awarded a controversial penalty in stoppage time and they went on to beat Tunisia 2-1.

Tunisia staff confronted the official, Rajindraparsand Seechurn, after the match and their Football federation has been fined $50,000 (£33,000)

Caf also wants an apology from Tunisia for accusations and bias.
Tunisia have also been ordered to pay for damages for a door and refrigerator in the team's dressing room at Bata stadium.


Mauritian referee Seechurn awarded the penalty in stppoage time after Ali Maaloul was harshly ruled to have fouled Ivan Bolado when Tunisia were leading 1-0 and, after equalising from the spot through Javier Balboa, the host Equatorial Guinea went on to win 2-1 in extra time.
Seechurn has also been removed from Caf's list of elite referees.

''The referees committee noted with regret the poor performance of the referee during the match, including an unacceptable failure to maintain calm and endure proper control of the players during the match'', said a Caf statement.



According to Caf, it was sent two letters by the Tunisian FA following the match, with the second asking for an investigation and suggesting that Caf and its officials ''were questionable and biased against Tunisia in general''.


Unless Tunisia's football federation can provide ''irrefutable evidence to substantiate the accusations'' they need to send a letter of apology by midnight on 5 febuary or face expulsion from the 2017 Africa cup of Nations......
