After a heroic round of 16 against Nigeria, Tunisia fell on a bone in the quarter-finals. A defeat against Burkina Faso (0-1). However, some observers have pointed to refereeing errors. Especially on a potential penalty on Wahbi Khazri. But after consulting the VAR, the referee did not whistle. An action that has also made people talk on social networks .
“We came across a good team from Burkina Faso”
Tunisia has therefore shown a completely different face. Faced with very dynamic and technically good Burkinabés, Ali Maaloul rather underlined the approximations of his team. “ A great match against Nigeria (1-0 in the round of 16), but today (yesterday editor’s note) we were next to the plate. We weren’t well in the first half and we conceded a goal. We have a good team and we could do better . Told the left side of Tunisia to Mosaïque FM.
For Naïm Sliti, Burkina Faso was above. The main thing now is to focus on the next deadlines. “ We came across a good team from Burkina Faso. Those who say that Burkina Faso are a small team are wrong. It’s soccer. We did not come back well in the first half. Now we have other important matches ”. Tunisia have a double confrontation against Mali in March for the 2022 World Cup play-offs.
