Tunisia bid farewell to the World Cup with distinguished historical numbers in a historic participation

The Tunisian national football team came out of the World Cup, which is currently being held in the Qatari capital, Doha, with its head held high, thanks to its victory over its French counterpart in the last round, with a clean goal.

The first historical figures show that the defeat inflicted by the "Carthage Eagles" on the French national team is the first that the "Roosters" have suffered since their loss at the hands of Germany in the World Cup in Brazil, which was held in 2014.

The second number is that the Tunisian national team has become the third Arab team to win against a world champion, as it was preceded by Algeria's victory over Germany in the 1982 World Cup and Saudi Arabia's victory over Argentina in the current World Cup.

In terms of personal numbers, Tunisian Wahbi Khazri became the first African player to score in 3 consecutive matches in which he participated as a starter from the start, as he scored against Belgium and Panama in the 2018 World Cup and in France today.

 Also, Wahbi Khazri became the top scorer of the Tunisian national team in the World Cup with 3 goals, as no other Tunisian player has the same number of goals.

It is noteworthy that the Tunisian national team bid farewell to the World Cup after finishing the group stage in third place with 4 points, behind France, the leader, with 6 points, and Australia, the second, with 6 points.
