History of the Tunisia national team

Founding and Early Years

The Tunisia national team, nicknamed "the Eagles of Carthage," is governed by the Tunisian Football Federation (FTF), founded in 1957, shortly after the country's independence. It quickly established itself among the respected nations of African football.

Team Evolution

A regular at World Cup finals since the 1970s, Tunisia built a reputation as a solid, consistent side on the continental and international stage.

Great Managers

Sabri Lamouchi now leads the Eagles of Carthage, continuing a tradition of head coaches who have kept Tunisia among the most consistent African nations.

Iconic Players

Tarak Dhiab, African Footballer of the Year in 1977, and Radhi Jaïdi, Tunisia's most-capped player in history with 105 caps, rank among the greatest stars of Tunisian football. Wahbi Khazri, a key forward at the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, now carries that legacy forward.

Major Achievements

Tunisia won their only continental title in 2004, on home soil, beating Morocco 2-1 in the final and finishing the tournament unbeaten. At the 2026 World Cup, Tunisia were eliminated in the group stage.

The Team Today

Under Sabri Lamouchi, Tunisia rank among the respected nations of the African continent in the FIFA World Ranking.
