Official: Tunisia dismisses the coach only after a World match

Tunisia National has fired its coach Sabri Lamouchi on Monday after the 5-1 heavy loss to Sweden in their first World Cup match.
The Tunisian Football Federation confirmed the decision through a statement to “Instagram”.
An official agreement has been reached for the dismissal of coach Sabri Lamuchi. Plans are under way for the appointment of Monterre Kebaier as the national interim coach”, the Sunnisian Federation wrote.
Tunisia will face Japan on Saturday at the same stadium in Guadalupe, where it had suffered defeat to Sweden before the group's match against Holland in Kansas City ended.
Lamouchi, 54, was appointed in January and was already under pressure after losing 5-0 to a friendly one towards Belgium in Brussels.
The French coach had previously led Côte d'Ivoire national to the 2014 World Cup, but failed to pass the group phase in Brazil./ Periscope.
