Tunisia will be making their sixth FIFA World Cup appearance in Qatar. They have been placed in Group D alongside defending champions France, Denmark and Australia.
Tunisia coach Jalel Kadri calls it his 바카라personal ambition바카라 to get his team into the knockout stages of the FIFA World Cup for the first time. He won the Kirin Cup in June, but hinted he could quit if Tunisia fail to get out of the group stage in Qatar. (More Football News)
바카라It바카라s my personal ambition. If we don바카라t get through, I will not have succeeded in my mission, despite how tough the task is,바카라 Kadri said. 바카라We want to make our dream come true and get through to the knockout round at the sixth time of asking.바카라
Good luck getting out Group D, though. Tunisia face defending champion France 바카라 which boasts a fearsome attack of Kylian Mbappe and Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema 바카라 and European Championship semifinalist Denmark, along with Australia.
바카라We바카라re very realistic. Nevertheless, I will pass on to the players a message of optimism and ambition, even though I know the mission is difficult,바카라 Kadri said. 바카라The most important thing is to know how to cope with the difficult moments in a game.바카라
There could be plenty of those given France's attack and the great teamwork that knits together a Danish team that pushed host England hard in the Euro 2020 semifinals. The Tunisians have never been past the group stage in five World Cup appearances.
There have been only two wins 바카라 the first against Mexico in 1978 and then against Panama four years ago in Russia. Whabi Khazri, who scored against Panama and added another goal in the 2018 tournament, will again the main attacking threat. He has scored 24 international goals.
Seifeddine Jaziri has a decent international record of 10 goals in 28 matches and operates affectively at center forward, while attacking midfielder Saif-Eddine Khaoui is starting to fulfill his promise at 27 years old.
Khaoui was rated highly when he broke into the Marseille team six years ago, but his form drifted off after he was loaned out to lesser-known clubs. The versatile midfielder has found consistency again with French club Clermont, with two goals and two assists this season.
The Carthage Eagles open against Croatia on November 22 before facing Australia four days later and then France on November 30. At least Tunisia has prepared the hard way, taking on five-time World Cup champion Brazil in a friendly last month in Paris.
Hopes soared when the Carthage Eagles drew level at 1-1, but they ended up losing 5-1. 바카라(We must) decide on a strategy that is clear and rectify our errors, whether they are individual or collective,바카라 said Kadri, who was promoted from assistant coach in January after Tunisia fired Mondher Kebaier.
바카라Especially on a tactical level, in terms of our positional play and our phases of play, notably in defense.바카라 The way Neymar and Richarlison pulled apart Tunisia's defense does not bode well, considering the team will have to deal with the pace of Mbappe, the guile of Benzema and the craft of Antoine Griezmann. Then there's the physicality, aerial threat and link-up play of Olivier Giroud.
바카라Against a team of this level, whether it's Brazil or France, you can never leave them any space,바카라 Kadri said. 바카라You have to maintain your concentration. You must stay attentive and reduce the space available as much as possible.바카라
