00:03So we are off, Tunisia kicking us off.
00:08Here is Mohamed Nasrowi, a special day for him as he makes his Tunisia debut tonight.
00:1724-year-old, based in Croatia, this is nice from the Tunisians,
00:21but straying into offside was Saifala Altayef.
00:33Down the line nicely to the delight of the crowd who roar on their approval, but...
00:44Mohamed Ramotse with the delivery.
00:46Ayman Daman punches it away against the crossbar.
00:50Mohit Suwa, and again, Gapé with a second for Mohit Suwa.
00:57As Tunisia tried their luck at the other end.
01:00Unable to find a way past Poco.
01:09Nasrowi.
01:10And a bit of space for Altayef.
01:14Looking for Masturian, headed behind.
01:21Out, Swinger, free header.
01:23And he cannot keep it down, Talbi.
01:27Garbi.
01:28That's nice.
01:29Malal, the cutback.
01:31Oh, well, they won a penalty.
01:33Laidouni with the strike, straight up Poco.
01:37Well, that was bright and inventive.
01:40Lepers of the Democratic Republic of Congo in their final game.
01:43In they are behind.
01:44Garbi.
01:45Really good save from Poco.
01:48To deny the Tunisian wide man his second opportunity in as many minutes.
01:53Altayef to the byline.
01:54Cannot get it through.
02:01Into the middle it goes and Sassi cannot guide that on target.
02:06Malou will deliver it in again.
02:08Nice bend.
02:08Punched away by Poco.
02:11That's a nice ball in.
02:12And that's causing problems.
02:14And Botswana have edged in front with only their second chance of the game.
02:21It was not dealt with at the back by Tunisia.
02:27And Thubisang, who got two on match day one, was in there again.
02:34So too Kamanyane.
02:36I think the final touch may have come of a Tunisian player.
02:40There was it Nasrawi on his debut.
02:46Getting.
02:49To the ball first.
02:51And turning it behind.
02:56Shub as well.
02:58Another base in North Africa.
03:01With Itihad Tangier in Morocco.
03:12Garbi with the responsibility.
03:15Swept forwards.
03:16Needs to go into the middle and does.
03:18Three queuing up at the far post.
03:20And they do not make any mistake.
03:24Hazem Masturi.
03:26With the goal.
03:28Expertly taken.
03:30Tunisia are level.
03:32And they were not behind for long.
03:36Instant response from the North Africans.
03:39And that was exactly what they needed.
03:49Really nicely played across.
03:51And look at the lack of marking.
03:53At the back post.
03:55Talbi.
03:56With the measured ball over.
03:59And if Masturi hadn't got it well, there were two more behind him.
04:04Sleman as sassy as you can see.
04:09Garbi.
04:17Garbi in behind.
04:19Striker goal.
04:20And then strike off target.
04:22And he had options in the middle.
04:23As both Ben Sleman and Masturi are making him aware of.
04:27Ben Sleman.
04:29Instantly round the corner into Altayef.
04:31Back into Ben Sleman.
04:32Here comes Tunisia.
04:32Looking for a second and unable to find it.
04:37Fired hard and low but wide.
04:42Well there goes the halftime whistle.
04:44And there is nothing to separate.
04:49So that's the 45 minute mark.
04:51We'll see what happens.
04:53It's a tight game 1-0.
04:55After 45 minutes away.
04:57We'll try to open the score line.
04:58With witness at minute 30.
05:00And Masturi tied things up at minute 44.
05:04We should see what happens.
05:05In the second half of football.
05:07The home side.
05:08Again drawing.
05:09In this maxitude.
05:11Of the AFCOM 2027.
05:13Now qualifiers.
05:14We see Botswana.
05:15Who also drew 2-2.
05:16Can get their first three points.
05:19Of the qualifiers.
05:20We'll take a short break.
05:21Come back with the highlights.
05:23With stats.
05:24With everything.
05:25In half time.
05:261-0.
05:27After 45 minutes of playing.
05:28The AFCOM qualifiers.
05:30Amazing points.
05:362-0.
05:36So back underway.
05:38And just as against Libya.
05:42And if they are to make it through.
05:44It'll be the first time they've ever.
05:46Achieved back-to-back AFCOM qualifications.
05:49Masturi in behind him.
05:50Masturi fires.
05:51Tunisia in front.
05:55Two goals.
05:56For Tunisia's number nine.
05:58And he took that expertly well.
06:01Just as he did his first.
06:05Got in on the wrong side.
06:07Of the Botswana back line.
06:10And he made no mistake.
06:15And Tunisia.
06:18From behind.
06:19To lead this game.
06:21And it wasn't the greatest clearance.
06:23Clearly from Ramotze.
06:25He used his strength well.
06:28Masturi.
06:29To hold off.
06:32And the player behind him.
06:33And look at that for a finish.
06:39Off the ground.
06:41On the volley.
06:43And powered past Pocco.
06:52The 30-year-old hugely experienced over 60 caps for the Zebras.
07:00Having made his debut.
07:02Back in 2014.
07:04Just a month after he turned 18.
07:07Wow.
07:08That was a challenge.
07:10And let's hope he's okay.
07:12Because...
07:13And let's hope he's okay.
07:14Because...
07:17Lucky Masturi's okay.
07:18And lucky that he's okay as well.
07:20As he...
07:21Buccaneered over the shoulder of the Chinese number nine.
07:23On the side.
07:29Setsele.
07:32Over the top.
07:33Into Ditsele.
07:35Oh, that's fantastic.
07:37Botswana are back.
07:39They're level.
07:42And it's the substitute.
07:44Who had all the composure.
07:46As well as the tie.
07:48To just loft it over Dahmen's head.
07:54And that is four goals in two games.
07:58Look at this ball over the top.
08:03And look at the finish as well.
08:07Talbi.
08:08Malul.
08:09Looking for Ashuri.
08:11Ben Romdan.
08:17To the bye nine again.
08:20Masturi in the middle.
08:21Pocco away.
08:22Only a throw as Ashuri against the post for Tunisia.
08:26Botswana survive.
08:28Malul.
08:29Back into Ben Romdan.
08:31And that's outstanding from Pocco to tip that over.
08:34Super save from...
08:35You can see exactly.
08:38That was headed until the 31-year-old goalkeeper got in the way.
08:43He rode his luck there as Ashuri hit the post.
08:47And then Malul measured one in.
08:50And that was a really good save to deny Ben Romdan.
08:57Got good power on it, and it needed the fingertips.
09:00And he hurt his shoulder as a result.
09:03Here's Altayef just driving it past Pocco.
09:07I'm sure he's so, so close.
09:12And Ben Romdan.
09:14Even closer.
09:15Super.
09:17Stop from Pocco.
09:19Over a decade in goal for Botswana.
09:25So Botswana currently down to ten.
09:30And Roos into touch.
09:41And Tometi clearly irking the Botswana bench.
09:45And being pulled away by his coach, who just goes to defuse Matas Ciobani.
09:50He doesn't want any of this nonsense.
10:02He doesn't want any of this nonsense.
10:06Do about nothing, I think.
10:09Let's have a look.
10:09Tometi pushing Ngata.
10:13Well, that is absolutely unwise.
10:17The fourth official pushing one of the Botswana backroom staff as well.
10:24Tometi angered by the fact that Ngata was holding on to the ball.
10:34And a game that has not been played in a bad spirit is just losing more goals in stoppage time
10:42just as he did against the Libyans.
10:46He's had to sail into the notebook.
10:48Well, the referee needs to get a grip on this game.
10:51Well, the referee needs to get a grip on this game.
10:57Mangolo is leaving the field, I...
11:01Again, Aracicudo and Arus, and again, lots of pulling, and...
11:06Aracicudo not getting the decision.
11:10Not complaining either, here's Czerny.
11:18Looking for Masturi and Ben Rondan up there as well.
11:21Oh, look at this, on the Alcabattica.
11:24Tometi with an outstanding volley.
11:28Creating an equally good save from Pocco.
11:31It was, and he just could not keep it down.
11:35And there'll be no time for more.
11:39Because despite the kerfuffle, there was just the eight minutes of additional time played,
11:43which means that it has ended in a draw yet.
11:48Always roll out on the right hand.
12:00And have to tell you how it was.
12:00We need to make a try.
12:01This is not meant to be a large part.
12:01Like, I had this one.
12:01Good job.
12:01I'll see you next time.
12:01Very good.
12:10I'll see you next time.
