Tunisia Dominate Kenya in African Nations Handball Championship
Tunisia continued their impressive form at the African Nations Handball Championship with a commanding 53-15 victory over Kenya on Saturday.
The Carthage Eagles, favourites of the tournament, asserted their dominance from the outset, replicating the strong performance of the first leg, where they had already built a 24-8 lead. Coach Sylvain Nouet used the match as an opportunity to rotate his squad, giving several players valuable court time while maintaining a high level of intensity and control.
The win underlines Tunisia’s credentials as one of the favourites in Group B. The team’s fluid attacking play and resolute defence left Kenya struggling to mount any sustained challenge. With the comprehensive victory, Tunisia remain unbeaten and look set to progress comfortably into the knockout stages.
Following this emphatic performance, the Carthage Eagles will enjoy a day of rest before returning to action against Congo on Monday at 4:00 p.m. The match will be a chance to consolidate their position at the top of the group while preparing for the more challenging fixtures ahead.
Tunisia’s display against Kenya showcased the depth and versatility of their squad, reflecting strong tactical planning and the coach’s willingness to rotate players without compromising results. As the tournament progresses, the team will aim to maintain their high standards and build momentum for a potential title challenge.
With confidence high and performances convincing, Tunisia are sending a clear message to the rest of the competition: they are serious contenders for the African Nations Handball Championship crown.
