Tunisia and Denmark neutralized each other 0-0, this Tuesday, November 22, on the occasion of the inaugural meeting of group D of the World Cup. Here are the post-match statements after this meeting.
Jalel Kadri (Tunisia coach):
“The zero result is satisfactory in front of an opponent of the caliber of Denmark, although we hoped to win a victory for our entry into the competition. The players provided this evening and delivered a good performance, but they lacked efficiency in front of the opposing cages given the number of opportunities they had obtained.
It is also necessary to salute the support of Tunisian supporters who played their role this afternoon to boost the morale of the Eagles. The refereeing was another positive point of the match, but I was amazed to see the Var team count 8 minutes of stopping game stops while the referee had reported only 5 minutes. “
Kasper Hjulmand (Denmark coach):
“The draw conceded against Tunisia is also a satisfactory result for us. I tried to make a few corrections during the match, but the Tunisia team was difficult to negotiate and knew how to avoid defeat. I have complete confidence in the ability of my players to bounce back and show up in a better face in the next games and we will work to rectify the shortcomings noted during the match on Tuesday.
We did not underestimate the Tunisian selection at any time, but the latter took advantage of important public support. In the next two games, our performance will be different and we will work to win with the way to honor Danish football ”.
Youssef Msakni (Tunisia player):
“The draw against Denmark remains a fairly good result in a competition of this scale. We hoped to start competition with a victory to increase our chances of going as far as possible. ”
Ferjani Sassi (Tunisia player):
“We have delivered a very good performance and the zero point acquired against Denmark will allow us to consider the continuation with more serenity and focus on our objective of exceeding the first round. I would particularly like to thank the public present at the stadium for his support ”.
Hannibal Majbri (Tunisia player):
“Today we have developed a fairly good game and we were good in all the compartments, only the goals missed the match. We are able to deliver an even better game and to surprise our opponents in the next two games. ”
