There have been violent clashes between fans and police outside a football stadium hosting an Africa Cup of Nations match.
Witnesses say supporters threw rocks and bottles at officers, who responded by firing tear gas.
It happened at the Bata stadium just as the game between hosts Equatorial Guinea and Burkina Faso was kicking off.
There is only one entrance and fans apparently got frustrated when they could not get in.
Some reportedly did not have tickets.
Supporters have faced delays getting into other tournament venues, with two group matches played back-to-back at a single stadium each night.
Riot police and fans also scuffled before the first games in the city of Ebebiyin on Sunday.
Delays have also been caused by supporters having to undergo Ebola checks before games.
They must all have a temperature check - with those above 38C not allowed in - and must clean their hands with a sanitisation gel before entering the stadium.
The Africa Cup of Nations was due to be staged by Morocco but it pulled out in November because of the Ebola crisis in West Africa.
Equatorial Guinea then stepped in at short notice.
