Tunisia U20 MNT head coach Adel Sellimi has reiterated his team’s commitment to secure the U20 AFCON bronze medal.
While Tunisia lost 3-0 to Senegal in the semi-finals at the Suez Canal Authority Stadium in Ismailia, the Flying Eagles were beaten 1-0 by Gambia at Cairo International Stadium.
Goals from Pape Demba Diop and a Lamine Camara brace was enough to secure Senegal a place in Saturday’s final against The Gambia.
“After the psychological shock against Senegal I asked the players to pull themselves together because the competition is not over,” Sellimi said.
“We can still win a trophy. The bronze medal is important for the CVs of the players, they must be aware of it.
“We can’t demolish everything because we’re not in the final.
“We have qualified for the World Cup. This group of players can be a base for the future of Tunisian football,” He concluded.
