Tunisia's coach, Humberto Coelho, believes that his side will acquire the needed test from today's international friendly against Ghana at Ohene Djan Stadium in Accra. The Carthage Eagles are optimistic that the Black Stars style of play will help them navigate their path in the final phase of the 2010 joint qualifiers in a Group comprising Nigeria, Mozambique and Kenya. The 2004 African Champions arrived in Accra on Tuesday afternoon and held their first practice session at the match venue after some few hours.
" I think it's a good match but the Ghana side is a good team. We will try to make a very good game, enjoy the game and play well if it's possible," Coelho told source. "I expect to win the game but you will never know it is a great game but if its possible we're coming to win the game."
Tunisia is without captain, Radhi Jaidi, who also pulled out. Big names like Karim Haggui and Mohamed Chermiti have also been left out. Coelho also excused players of CAF Confederation Cup finalists, Etoile du Sahel and CS Sfaxien as they play the return leg of the final over the weekend.
The last time the North Africans were in Ghana was in January this year for the Nations Cup where they got knocked out by Cameroon in the quarter-finals.
