Tear gas was deployed by the authorities as supporters tore down dugouts and clashing with police.

Footage shown on social media captured the frustration spilling over onto the ground.

Arsenal star Thomas Partey opened the scoring for Ghana before William Troost-Ekong's penalty drew Nigeria level.

But Nigeria couldn't find another goal and Ghana will now book their tickets to Qatar for November.

The failure to qualify was the Super Eagles' first since 2006.
