The Carthage Eagles face Zimbabwe,
the last of the group, with the goal to win at least one draw that would allow
them to compost their ticket. Defeat in opening by Senegal (2-0), Tunisia
caught up well by beating Algeria (2-1) on the second day of the group stage.
In case of success or draw, the Tunisians would be assured to accompany the Senegalese for the rest
of the competition. On the way to the quarterfinals Zimbabwe defy Tunisia in
group B on Monday in Libreville. A draw is enough for the Eagles of Carthage to
enter the second round while the Warriors must absolutely win.
In this decisive match
for the qualification in the second round of the continental competition, the
Eagles of Carthage must win or draw, while awaiting the result of the meeting between
Senegal and Algeria.
After the excellent performance of the Tunisian team last Friday against Algeria and a first game lost
against Senegal (2-0), Tunisian supporters hope for a victory that confirms the
renewal of form of the Eagles of Carthage.
