Tunisia ready for Ghana

Tunisia’s Saber Khelifa feels his side’s familiarity with Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final opponents Ghana could prove the difference in the tie.

The two sides meet on Sunday in Franceville, Gabon, and Khelifa – who plays his club football for Ligue 1 side Evian – said the team has been doing their homework on their upcoming opponents.

“We’ve been studying Ghana for a while,” Khelifa told Mosaique FM.

“We watched all of their games and we know their strong and weak points.”

“We’re going to focus on them even more now and watch additional videos with our coach and the technical staff.”

Despite performing well in Tunisia’s matches so far, Khelifa is still without a goal in the tournament, but the 25-year-old said he does not care for personal glory – as long as his side are winning.

“Of course I want to score,” he said. “Truthfully, there’s more to it than just scoring goals.”

“I can create them for my teammates. What’s essential is that we keep winning. God willing, I’ll score in the quarters.”
