A match that started perfectly for the Tunisians, with a goal by Ellyes Skhiri in the 10th minute of play.

A symbolic goal for the Carthage Eagles, reaching the milestone of 100 goals at the Africa Cup of Nations. Only Egypt (177), Ivory Coast (152), Nigeria (148), Cameroon (142), and Ghana (138) have done better according to StatsduFoot.

Moreover, still according to StatsduFoot, the Tunisians scored in their opening match of an Africa Cup of Nations for the first time since... 2019.

The Carthage Eagles then increased their dominance with a double by Elias Achouri (40th, 64th), before Uganda saved face thanks to Denis Omedi (90+2).

In your opinion, how far will Tunisia go in this Africa Cup of Nations?
