Good evening and welcome to our coverage of the third and fourth placed match between Nigeria and Tunisia.

The two might have targeted the ultimate but painful solitary defeats in the semi-final means they now have to settle for either third or fourth.

An own goal from Bronn in extra time against Senegal ended Tunisia’s run for the trophy.

Riyad Mahrez scored a sublime goal with practically the last kick of the game to break the heart of Nigerians in their match against Algeria.

Back in their respective countries, the two coaches are under attacks for failing to lead their teams to glory.

But tonight they have a chance to give their disappointed fans some respite. A win for either side could lessen the pains from last Sunday’s game and could be their escape route from being sacked.

Tunisia’s Ferjani Sassi who missed last Sunday’s game has returned and will play in this game alongside Slite and Khazri who did not have a good game against Senegal.

It will be interesting to see how Rohr will psych his boys after the defeat on Sunday but he is expected to field a similar squad like he did on Sunday.

Nigeria and Tunisia have met 17 times with the Super Eagles recording 5 wins while the Carthage Eagles have 6 wins with 6 games drawn.
