The incident occurred at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi as the Tunisian players made their way towards the dressing room. Fans, clearly disappointed by the result, directed their frustration at the squad by hurling bottles in their direction.
The match had ended level after Botswana fought back to claim a valuable point. Tunisia had led 2-1 through two goals from Hazem Mastouri, only for Lebogang Ditsele to equalise in the 60th minute. The home side created numerous chances but were unable to find a winner.
The draw extends Tunisia’s poor run of form and leaves them with just two points from their opening two Group H fixtures. The visible discontent from the stands reflected growing impatience among supporters after another underwhelming performance.
The bottle-throwing incident adds to the tension that marked the closing stages of the game, which had already seen a heated exchange involving Tunisia’s Sebastian Tounekti and members of the Botswana technical staff.
No further disturbances were reported, and the players eventually left the field. The result keeps both Tunisia and Botswana level at the top of the group on two points as the qualifying campaign continues.
