Doha: Tunisia pipped Egypt by a lone goal at Stadium 974 yesterday to qualify for the final of the FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2021.

An agonizing own goal by Egyptian captain Amro El Soulia ensured the Carthage Eagles edged their North African rivals in front of a sold-out stadium.

Tunisia will now await the winner of the other semi-finals between Qatar and Algeria. The match will kick off at 10pm at Al Thumama Stadium.
