In 70 matches for Tunisia, he scored four goals and was only ever yellowcarded  once. He spent most of his career at L'Etoile Sportive du Sahel, captaining both them and his country, before taking his coaching certificate in 1974 at the Cologne University of Applied Sciences and almost seamlessly moving on to manage his national team in January 1975. His innate ability to explain, convince and demonstrate what he wanted his players to do enabled him to get the best out of his squads and overcome various crises to steer Tunisia to its first ever final phase of a FIFA World Cup in Argentina in 1978.

This tournament saw him go down in the annals as the first ever coach of an African team to record a win at a final phase when they defeated Mexico 31, though it would prove insufficent for his side to progress to the next stage. He is now a well respected sports consultant for a television channel, allowing him to follow all the latest developments in football. His imagination and unpredictable nature are still intact, and his message to budding young footballers is also the same after all these years: "Play as a team, keep focused and just go for it. Anything is possible in football! " And when asked for one phrase to summarise his career, he replies with a smile: "I enjoyed myself and I think people enjoyed watching me. "

It is peculiar to think how indebted the above adage is to a tepid 00 draw between football's founders and its selfproclaimed kings. Curiously, however, the meeting between the Three Lions and the Sele?? o at the 1958 FIFA World Cup Sweden? provoked a revolution that transformed Brazil into the footballing empire it is today. Until then, Brazil had been considered a team designed to sparkle rather than succeed. This theory was handsomely supported by their failure to triumph after dazzling early at the 1938, 1950 and 1954 FIFA World Cups. A point against England had left Vicente Feola's side needing a result in their final group game against Soviet Union to be sure of a place in the knockout  phase, and prompted the coach to hand starts to two players who would go on to change the face of the sport.
