Tunisia Sack Coach Lamouchi after 5-1 Defeat by Sweden

Tunisia have sacked coach Sabri Lamouchi after they were trounced 5-1 by Sweden in their opening World Cup group game.

Lamouchi thus becomes the first coach to be sacked at the ongoing World Cup.

He was only in charge of the Carthage Eagles for five matches.

Former coach Mounher Kabairer is expected to be appointed in an interim capacity as new coach in time for Tunisia’s next World Cup tie against Japan on June 20.
