Libya have again suffered the wrath of CAF after they were ordered to play their next two home games behind closed doors following crowd trouble during a 2025 AFCON qualifier against Benin.
The North Africans will also pay a fine of $50,000 on account of this incident.
In November, Libya were held to a scoreless draw by Benin to end hopes of qualifying for the 2025 AFCON in Morocco.

Libya forfeited the game and they were also heavily fined.
