Skhiri’s strike! (82nd)
The Tunisian midfielder tries his luck from afar, it’s countered. Another corner for Tunisia.
We enter the last quarter of an hour (77th)
As we entered the last quarter of an hour, we are still waiting for this match to ignite… The Gambians are getting tired running behind the ball, the Tunisians would benefit from picking up the pace.
On the bar!! (74th)
The strike comes to die on the bar of Ben Said! The free kick was perfect!
And another free kick for Gambia (73rd)
New attempt for the Scorpions.

Perhaps the solution can come from a free kick. It’s above.
Change for Tunisia (68th)
Rafia gives way to Mejbri.
Barrow Strike! (66th)
Finally a reaction from The Gambia! Musa Barrow tries his luck at the near post but Ben Said catches the ball. The strike was too crushed.
New corner for Tunisia (63rd)
For now, this second period is a copy paste of the first. The corners are linked but lead to nothing. Tunisia stumbles on the Gambian block.
Changes for Gambia (61st)
Touray replaces Sonko.
We arrive at game time (60th)
Soon the hour of play in this soporific rhythm match. Tunisia, as since the beginning of this match, comes up against the strong defense of Gambia. We observe some gestures of annoyance on the part of the Tunisians.
Changes for Tunisia (56th)
Khaoui gives way to Msakni.
Drager enters in place of Mathlouthi.
Khazri’s absence is felt (53rd)
Tunisia lacks sharpness and the absence of Khazri is strongly felt. As a reminder, the ASSE player is positive for Covid-19.
Ben Slimane’s attempt!! (50th)
The Tunisian midfielder brings a bit of dynamism to the Tunisian attack. His attempt is countered by a defender but it grazes Gaye’s post.

Here we go again in Lime!
Mr. Guerrero whistles the start of this meeting! At half-time, there were scuffles between the referee and the Tunisian camp, the substitute goalkeeper Ben Mustapha was expelled for his aggression towards the referee.
Half time!
It’s half time between Gambia and Tunisia! Thanks to Gaye’s superb save, The Gambia hold the score at 0-0 and remain top of their group.
Mathlouthi takes yellow! (47th)
The Tunisian defender will therefore not participate in the round of 16!
GAYE STOPS THE PENALTY!! (44th)
The Gambia goalkeeper intervenes and pushes back Jaziri’s penalty shot on his right!
PENALTY FOR TUNISIA (42nd)
Jaziri provokes the fault of Diagne in full surface! Penalty indicates M.Guerrero. Jaziri grabs the ball, he wants revenge himself.
Corner for Tunisia (41st)
Skhiri’s grazing shot is blocked, corner.
Free kick for Tunisia (38th)
While Abdi is on the ground in full surface after contact between his foot and the sole of a Gambian player, the referee returns to a foul in midfield.
Rafia’s strike! (35th)
The Eagles of Carthage have understood that the solution can come from small accelerations in the heart of the game! Rafia sneaks into the box and fires a shot at the near post that dies in the side netting… outside.
Head of Slimane! (33rd)
Finally a shot! Ben Slimane takes a cross from the head but the ball is too crossed, six meters.
Gambia try from afar (31st)
Like Musa Barrow’s shot from 35 meters, Gambia plays a very direct game. If there are no solutions, Gambian players try their luck as soon as possible.
Corner for Tunisia (30th)
Coley throws himself at Jaziri’s feet. Corner for Tunisia.
Few solutions for the ball carrier (28th)
The positioning of the Gambians leaves no loophole for the Tunisians to exploit, who are content to pass the ball around…
Tunisia largely holds possession (25th)
76% possession for Tunisia after 25 minutes of play. The Tunisians shot 3 times on goal, no shots on target.
The Gambia have yet to draw.
Tunisia seeks the fault (23rd)
The Carthage Eagles seek the fault by sliding the ball from right to left. The Gambia defense follows well, and leaves no gap between its lines.
Gambia come out of their half of the field (20th)
After a quarter of an hour of play, the Gambians gradually leave their camp and settle in that of Tunisia. In the defensive phase, Tom Saintfiet’s players fall back very cleanly.
The exit of Ben Said very far from his goal (18th)
Very good anticipation from the Tunisian goalkeeper, who is only living his third cap with Tunisia.
Corner for Gambia (16th)
It’s the first corner of the game for Gambia, who have good headers. Watch out for set pieces for Tunisia.
First thrill! (14th)
First big chance in this match, Ali Abdi manages to shoot with his foot but his attempt grazes the post of the Gambian goalkeeper, nailed to his line.
Barrow au sol (13e)
The Gambia No.11 was hit in the face after a duel with Slimane. Foul for Gambia.
The two teams gauge each other (11th)
Despite the possession of the ball in favor of the Tunisians, the match is quite balanced in its appearance. The Gambia are very solid behind and seem to want to take advantage of the counter-attacks.
Corner for Tunisia (7th)
Diagne tackles a Tunisian in the feet, corner. The corner is returned by a Gambian defender.
Gambia plays very low (5th)
Tunisia, which tries to play in small spaces, comes up against a very low Gambian block.
