Tunisia 1–1 Uganda

Adem Arous put Tunisia ahead inside the first quarter-hour, but Uganda refused to fold and hauled themselves level through Rogers Mato in the 68th minute, leaving this Africa Cup of Nations qualifier honors even. Arous's 12th-minute strike looked early on like it might settle things comfortably, giving the hosts control they'd previously shown against Uganda, having won their only prior meeting between the sides. Instead, Mato's finish two-thirds of the way through the second half turned a routine home night into a genuine contest, and neither side could find a winner after that. Neither Arous nor Mato features among the qualifying campaign's top scorers, a list currently topped by M. Munetsi, but both men delivered exactly the moments their teams needed on the day. A 1-1 draw is a fair reflection of how it swung, Tunisia dominant early, Uganda finishing the stronger of the two. Watch Arous thread his opener past the Uganda defense and see how Mato punished a rare lapse to snatch Uganda a deserved point in the 68th minute.
