Good afternoon and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE commentary of the African Cup of Nations third-place play-off between hosts Equatorial Guinea and DR Congo. There had been question marks if today's encounter would go ahead following fan unrest during the semi-final clash between Ghana and the hosts but the match was given the green light yesterday and will, in fact, be played in front of fans in Malabo.

Full-time! Penalties coming right up...
90'+2
CHANCE! Nsue hits the side netting with a half volley. Considering the difficulty of the effort, he done OK. That will be the last chance you would imagine.
90'+1
Three minutes of additional time are to be played.
90'
Balboa, who has scored the only direct free-kick in the competition, goes for goal and although the ball curls around the wall, the goalkeeper makes a comfortable save.
89'
But Equatorial Guinea win a free-kick and have a late chance to get the ball into the box.
88'
A penalty-shootout is looming...
86'

EQUATORIAL GUINEA SUB: Raul Fabiani is on for Belima.
82'
There is around eight minutes left of normal time and the score is still goalless. At the moment we are heading for penalties.
80'
Another magnificient run from DR Congo's Mabwati almost produces a goal as when he is finally dispossessed the ball almost falls to Mbokani but Ovono is quick off his line to collect.
78'
CHANCE! Equatorial Guinea found themselves in a two vs two situation as Belima advances with the ball but instead of playing it across goal for his team-mate Nsue, he blasts the ball well over the bar. What a wasted opportunity.
