3 months ago

The Brave Warriors of Namibia produced one of the shocks of AFCON 2023, after netting a late goal to edge Tunisia 1-0 in Group E on Tuesday.

It is Namibia’s first-ever win at the AFCON having previously participated at three editions (1998, 2008 and 2019).

Orlando Pirates midfielder, Deon Hotto, was the hero for the Namibians as his 88th minute goal secured the three points.

Tuesday’s game was the first time both Tunisia and Namibia will face each other at the AFCON.

In their three previous clashes Tunisia had come out victorious in all of them.

Meanwhile, Group E other game will see Bafana Bafana of South Africa take on Mali.
