The Carthage Eagles secured a 2-0 victory over Burkina Faso’s Stallions, ending a drought of more than 30 years. However, they then suffered a defeat by the same scoreline against the "Atlas Lions."

Here are 3 adjustments the Tunisian national team needs to make

New attacking options

The duo of Firas Chaouat and Hazem Mestouri failed to impress, especially in the match against Morocco. Both strikers had little impact on the Moroccan defense.

As a reminder, the Tunisian Football Federation has been trying for several weeks to convince Wahbi Khazri to come out of international retirement.

A more creative midfield

The midfield proved to be a major weak point for Tunisia in their game against Morocco. The trio of Aidouni, Sassi, and Mejbri lost the midfield battle and couldn't keep up with the tempo set by Sofiane Amrabat, Azzedine Ounahi, and Bilal El Khannous.

Instilling discipline

The Carthage Eagles lacked discipline in their friendly against Morocco. The Tunisian players lost concentration following some controversial decisions by Malian referee Boubou Traoré.
