FIFA World Cup: Tunisia lose 0-1 to Australia, face elimination

The Carthage Eagles of Tunisia walk tightrope in the ongoing FIFA 2022 World Cup tournament in Qatar as they lost 0-1 to Australia in their second group D match on Saturday.

If the North Africans want to advance to the knock-out stage, they will have to beat defending champions, France, in their next game on Wednesday with massive goals, a task that seems impossible.

Australia’s Mitchell Duke scored a great header to keep his team’s chances of progressing to the last 16 alive.

The first-half header was just enough to see off a battling Tunisia.

Having lost their first game to France 4-1, Australia now have three points, whilst Tunisia have just a single point from their draw with Denmark and face World Champions France in their final group game.
