Always alive in memories and honored by fans of the African club and hope, Lassaad Ouertani and Hédi Berrekhissa left an image of combatants. Their grinta has become proverbial and continues to give an example.
At sixteen years of distance, Hédi Berrekhissa and Lassaad Ouertani are among the big missing from the sports scene. The first died on January 4, 1997 and the second, on January 4, 2013. Both were renowned for their chivalrous style and the love that linked them to their colors.
The African club will never forget Lassaad Ouertani and his number 14. Pugnace, fighting at heart, always elegant, this player crushed all of the terrain, drew from his resources in the depths of himself, all the energy of the win.
Lassaad Ouertani
Leaving too early, on January 4, 2013, Lassaad Ouertani remained in the hearts of all clubists. His rage to defeat and his loyalty to the colors marked the spirits who kept the memory of his rides ball on the foot, his millimeter centering and his victorious headings.
Lassaad Ouertani has left the memory of a wrestler, an image that may seem anachronistic in a football dominated by the market. It is that it was of this caliber of men for whom the effort, the fair play and the honor are not negotiated but live in capital letters.
Lassaad Ouertani has been entering the Pantheon of the African Club which he will always count among the heroes of virtues and grinta.
The chances of life and calendar gave our January 4, a fateful scent. The same day, in 1997, during a friendly match, Hedi Berekhissa, another fighter of the green rectangle fell as a hero on the lawn of the Chedly Zouiten stadium.
Bearing the same values as Ouertani, playing in the same style and giving everything in the field, Berrekhissa also remains in all the exemptions. In fact, these two men have been acclaimed by all athletes and left a wake of grace and an exemplary stature.
Hédi Berrekhissa
We still remember the decisive goals of this governing defender, his frantic races with the opposing defenders after him, and also the impression of quiet power he gave off.
Berrekhissa and Ouertani will remain two real symbols. Peace to their souls.
