The Tunisian national football team has announced the dismissal of head coach Sabri Lamouchi. This decision comes after the team suffered a considerable 5-1 defeat against Sweden in their first Group F match of the 2026 World Cup.
The match against Sweden served as Tunisia's opener in the tournament. The wide margin of the loss appears to have been a direct factor in the football federation's decision to part ways with Lamouchi.
