Watch Senegal Vs. Tunisia Live Stream: 2019 Africa Cup Of Nations Semifinal, Start Time, Preview, How To Watch
The first semifinal in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations feels more like a final, with the top two ranked teams in Africa squaring off for a slot in the final, against either Nigeria or Algeria. Senegal comes in ranked at 22nd overall in the world by FIFA, per Africa News, while Tunisia ranks just three slots below. Senegal are considered the favorites to advance to their first Africa Cup of Nations final since 2002, when the team’s current coach, Aliou Cisse, missed a spot kick that cost his team a penalty shootout that decided the championship that year, against Cameroon. Now Cisse looks to take the team back to the final 17 years later, if they can get past Tunisia in the match that will live stream from Cairo.
