Tunisia 2-1 Morocco | Match review | ACN 2012
Tunisia gave North African rivals Morocco a masterclass in the counter attack with a 2-1 Group C win in their African Cup of Nations opener in Libreville.
Despite dominating possession, Morocco fell victim to goals from Khaled Korbi and Youssef Msakni, as the Atlas Lions’ Europe-based stars were undone by a team many of whom turn out for domestic sides.
Skipper Houssine Kharja pulled one back for the Atlas Lions, who piled it on in the latter stages but were held off by a stubborn defence from the Carthage Lions, who survived five minutes plus of injury time and some good late chances from their rivals.
