South African referee Victor Gomez will handle Ghana’s round of 16 clash against Tunisia in Ismailia on Monday night.

In 2018, Gomes hogged the headlines when he turned down a bribe to throw a CAF Confederation Cup match.

Gomes was approached to fix the first leg play-off encounter between Nigeria’s Plateau United and Algeria’s USM Alger.

Plateau went on to win the encounter 2-1.

Kick-off is at 7:00 PM local time.
