Both teams were guilty of missing out on some good chances in an exciting Group D game.
Don’t judge this game by its score. Tunisia battled Denmark to a goalless draw that must rank as one of the most exciting matches in World Cup history to finish without a goal to show for the excitement it offered.
Tuesday night’s Group D game saw Tunisia bring the energy from the start, with tickets and players cheering on the countless fans of the North African nation at Education City Stadium.
The Eagles of Carthage, as the Tunisian team is known, dominated the early stages, but little by little Denmark grew in the game and began to dominate possession.
Tunisia wasted a couple of brilliant chances either side of halftime as their fans continued to pressure the Danish players with whistles and boos.
Perhaps the best chance of the match, however, fell to Denmark’s Andreas Cornelius, who inexplicably headed the post from point-blank range.
In the end, a draw seemed like a fair result, but both sides will worry that they won’t be able to convert a couple of good chances.
