Tunisia’s unbeaten home record in the qualifiers came to an abrupt halt as Gambia pulled off a surprise 1-0 victory at the Stade Olympique Hammadi-Agrebi.

Abdoulie Ceesay’s 17th-minute header proved decisive, as Tunisia struggled to convert their chances despite dominating possession and creating several goal-scoring opportunities.
The Eagles of Carthage were left frustrated as Sayfallah Ltaief hit the post in the 13th minute, and substitute Nabil Makni came close late in the second half but was denied by Gambia’s resilient defense.

Gambia’s solid defensive shape and disciplined performance helped them finish third in the group with eight points.
