Black Stars midfielder Laryea Kingston has been handed a four-match ban by CAF’s disciplinary board.

Kingston has also been hit with a $1,000 fine by the disciplinary board.

Laryea and Senegalese defender Habib Beye were sent off in the match.

Tempers boiled over after 62 minutes when Beye tangled with Kingston.

The Ghana midfielder fell to the floor holding his face, though replays suggested Beye had only pushed him in the chest.

According to reports, the Ghana Football Association intends to appeal the decision.

Ghana on Friday played themselves back into contention for a quarter-final place with a hard-fought win over Senegal in match that saw two players red carded.

Matthew Amoah scored Ghana's winner with a brilliant strike from close to the byeline that flew between Senegal's goalkeeper and the near post.
