Tunisia stun Brazil with a draw and extend their unbeaten run

On Tuesday, 18 November, we witnessed a friendly in which Brazil faced Tunisia – and the match did not pass without a shock.

Details: The African side opened the scoring in the 23rd minute. Hazem Mastouri put his team ahead, but before the break Brazil restored parity. A careless challenge in their own box, a confidently converted penalty by Estevão, and it was 1–1 at halftime.

In the second half, Brazil controlled the flow of the match and had chances to snatch the win. However, in the 78th minute, Lucas Paquetá failed to convert a penalty. Tunisia held on for a 1–1 draw, avoiding defeat against this opponent for the first time.

Moreover, Tunisia extended their unbeaten streak, which now stands at five matches. During this run they have beaten Jordan 3–2, Namibia 3–0, and São Tomé and Príncipe 6–0. They also drew with Mauritania — and now with Brazil.
