After a sluggish first round, Tunisia will not see the last four of the African Cup of Nations. Faced with Burkina Faso, the Carthage Eagles lost on Saturday, January 29, at the end of a match devoid of opportunity for the band at Wahbi Khazri.

For their part, the Stallions started the game very well, creating the first breaches in the opposing defense. It is logical that they opened the scoring, in additional time of the first period (45 + 2nd) through Dango Ouattara. It was he again who could have changed the game in the second period. Expelled in the last minutes, he left his team to struggle at ten but the Burkinabés held on well and will meet Equatorial Guinea or Senegal in the semi-finals.
