AFCON 2025: Celtic’s Sebastian Tounekti Braced for “Hard Game” Against Nigeria

Celtic winger Sebastian Tounekti expects a fierce battle this Saturday as Tunisia prepares to take on Nigeria in a highly anticipated AFCON clash in Morocco.

Both teams head into the fixture with momentum, following Nigeria’s win over Tanzania and Tunisia’s victory against Uganda.

Speaking ahead of the match, Tounekti acknowledged the scale of the challenge but viewed it as an opportunity. “We’re looking forward to a big game against a big nation,” he said.

He emphasized that while Nigeria is a favorite to win the tournament, a Tunisian victory would send a clear message: “If we win, we make a statement that we are here to compete.”The action kicks off at 9:00 PM (WAT).
