Renard Quits as Tunisia Boss Following World Cup Debacle

  • On Saturday, Herve Renard announced his departure as Tunisia coach after the North African side's group-stage elimination from the World Cup. The 57-year-old wrote on Instagram, thanking the Tunisian Football Federation for the opportunity.
  • Tunisia conceded 12 goals in the group stage of the expanded 48-team tournament, setting a new unwanted record that surpassed the 11 goals conceded by Costa Rica at the 2022 World Cup.
  • Sabri Lamouchi was dismissed following a 5-1 defeat by Sweden in Tunisia's opening match, yet Renard's appointment failed to halt the slide with a 4-0 loss to Japan that left him feeling "ashamed."
  • Tunisia's World Cup campaign concluded with a 3-1 defeat by the Netherlands, confirming their exit without a single win and raising questions about the national team's future direction.
  • Despite arriving with high expectations after an undefeated qualifying campaign, Renard said representing Tunisia was "an honour" and the experience would remain etched in his memory.
