Afcon 2019: Tunisia gained momentum in the knockout stages-Sassi

Tunisia midfielder Ferjani Sassi has expressed his delight with the Carthage Eagles’ newfound momentum at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

Sassi, who was named man-of-the-match in his country's quarter-final match against Madagascar, believes Tunisia have peaked at the right time and he is equally confident they can successfully push for a berth in the final against Senegal on Sunday.

The Zamalek of Egypt player scored the first goal in the 3-0 win which secured Tunisia’s first Afcon semi-final berth in 15 years and now, he wants the job done against the Teranga Lions.
