Nigeria vs Tunisia Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

In 1/8 final action, Nigeria National Football Team met Tunisia National Football Team on January 23. Tunisia emerged victorious with a 0-1 win.

Youssef Msakni scored the only goal of the game on the 47th minute of the match, giving Tunisia the lead and clinching the victory.

The countdown begins for a clash that promises intensity as Nigeria and Tunisia are set to clash again, a year after the friendly meeting that concluded in a 1-1 stalemate. With victories over Guinea Bissau, Sudan and Egypt, Nigeria National Football Team is on a roll, extending their unbeaten streak to six matches.

Tunisia's current performances, in contrast to their opponent's recent successes, leave more to be desired, as they prepare for this match after a loss to Gambia in the Group F on January 20. Their recent away form raises questions, failing to score in their last four away outings, a streak they are desperate to end.

In this Africa Cup Of Nations showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for Nigeria National Football Team and Tunisia throughout the campaign. Nigeria’s offensive unit, with Augustine Eguavoen at the helm, has leaned on Kelechi Iheanacho, their main scorer, and Samuel Chukwueze, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Iheanacho is Nigeria’s overall top scorer so far this term, with one goal across all competitions. Supporting them are Taiwo Awoniyi, Moses Simon and Umar Sadiq, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Nigeria’s attack.

Meanwhile, the attacking efforts of Tunisia, under Mondher Kebaier’s guidance, have been driven by Wahbi Khazri, the team’s primary goal threat, and Hamza Mathlouthi, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. Khazri has been Tunisia’s standout performer across all competitions, netting two goals, with Slimane standing out as the team’s most creative player, registering one assist so far. Tunisia’s offense has also been strengthened by Seifeddine Jaziri, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.
