At halftime of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations third-place play-off between DR Congo and Equatorial Guinea, the score remained 0–0.
Key Highlights of the First Half:
-
The match was played in a quiet atmosphere, with few spectators in the stands — a reflection of the tension following previous match incidents.
-
Midfield battle: Most of the action was concentrated in the midfield, with both teams struggling to create clear-cut opportunities.
-
DR Congo’s best chance came from Yannick Bolasie, who controlled a through ball with his chest and unleashed a shot — but it missed the target, flying wide of Felipe Ovono’s goal.
-
Equatorial Guinea had little to show in attack despite efforts from Balboa and Nsue.
If the deadlock continues through the second half, the match will go directly to a penalty shootout to determine third place in the tournament.
