Tunisia and Senegal Set for High-Stakes Group G Clash in Dakar
A major showdown awaits football fans this Friday evening as Tunisia faces Senegal in Dakar for the third round of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The two teams currently sit atop Group G, each with two wins from their opening fixtures, making this duel a pivotal step toward qualification for the final tournament in Morocco.
Houcine Ragued, the Tunisian midfielder, has made it clear that the Carthage Eagles are not traveling to Senegal to sit back. In an interview with MFM, Ragued expressed confidence and ambition ahead of the clash at the Léopold Sédar Senghor Stadium, which is expected to be filled to capacity.
“It’s an important double confrontation between two teams that have been full during the first two rounds. We have prepared well, tonight’s match will be difficult but we will try to score, we did not come here to defend,” said Ragued.
A draw or victory away from home would put Tunisia in a commanding position heading into the return leg. With both teams in top form and qualification stakes high, this match promises intensity, quality, and perhaps a preview of two strong contenders for the continental title.
