Tunisia Qualifies for 2026 World Cup with Dramatic Victory - Second African Nation to Secure Spot

Tunisia secures a spot in the 2026 World Cup after Mohamed Ben Romdhane's late goal against Equatorial Guinea. The victory in Malabo on Monday ensured Tunisia's qualification with 22 points from eight matches, making it their seventh World Cup appearance.

This marks the second African nation, after Morocco, to confirm participation in the global tournament. Tunisia's win solidified their unbeatable lead in the group, with Firas Chaouat setting up Ben Romdhane for the crucial goal.

The African qualifying structure will send nine teams directly to the World Cup, with the 10th nation earning a chance to compete for an additional berth in the expanded tournament.
