Tunisia’s issues continue to increase ahead of the Carthage Eagles’ 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifying playoff encounter against Mali following news that two key players will be unavailable due to injury. Saint-Étienne playmaker Wahbi Khazri will miss both legs as well as central defender Dylan Bronn, leaving the North African side without two starters.
Veteran Saudi-based Bilel Ifa and Rubin Kazan player Montassar Talbi will likely be called upon to be the center back pairing for the Carthage Eagles following news of Bronn’s absence while more goal scoring responsibility will be placed on captain Youssef Msakni and Naïm Sliti up top for a slumping Tunisian attack.
