Tunisia coach, Mondher Kebaier, has revealed the tactics his team employed to defeat the Super Eagles in their Round of 16 encounter on Sunday in the ongoing 2021 African Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

VAM News had reported that Tunisia defeated the Super Eagles 1-0, courtesy of a 47th minute Youssef Msakni strike to progress to the quarter-finals

After recording 9 points after 3 games in the group stage, Nigeria was tagged favourite to lift the trophy for the fourth.

During a post-match conference, Kebaier confirmed that they worked on the Nigeria wingers because they knew how dangerous they could be.

“Today we came up with tactics to put pressure on the Nigerian wingers because they are very dangerous. And we also know they have difficulties when they lose the ball,” he said.

Tunisia will now play against Burkina Faso in the quarter-final as Super Eagles return home.
