Tunisia have sensationally sacked head coach Sabri Lamouchi after just one match at the FIFA World Cup following the country’s disastrous start to the tournament.
The 54-year-old manager’s future was thrown into serious doubt after Tunisia suffered a crushing 5-1 defeat to Sweden in their opening Group Stage encounter in Monterrey.
Lamouchi could only watch from the sidelines as the Scandinavian side dominated proceedings from start to finish, leaving Tunisia’s World Cup hopes hanging by a thread.
Reports indicate that Tunisian football authorities moved swiftly in the aftermath of the embarrassing defeat, deciding to part ways with the former midfielder in a bid to rescue their campaign.
The heavy loss sparked outrage among supporters, many of whom demanded immediate changes after the team’s disappointing performance.
With the tournament still ongoing, Tunisia now face the daunting task of finding a replacement capable of steadying the ship and reviving their chances of progressing beyond the group stage.
The sudden dismissal makes Lamouchi one of the earliest managerial casualties of the World Cup, highlighting the intense pressure facing coaches on football’s biggest stage.
