Before the start of the match, which ended with Tunisia’s Eagles of Carthage winning 3-1 against Uganda in the first match for both teams in Group C of the first round of the AFCON 2025 tournament in the Moroccan capital, Rabat, the Tunisians caught the attention with a beautiful humanitarian gesture with the young children they brought to the stadium.

The atmosphere was rainy and stormy on the pitch, just like the exciting match itself. The Tunisian players took off their winter jackets and dressed the young children in front of them in a spontaneous gesture that reflected the beautiful game.

This match was very important for the Tunisian team, ranked 41st globally, and currently in first place with 3 points along with Nigeria, who also won against Tanzania with a score of 2-1 today. It should be noted that the group leaders, Nigeria and Tunisia, will face each other on December 27.
