Unacceptable incident.. The Tunisian star angered Koeman

The World Cup Group F match between Holland and Tunisia was briefly halted due to an incident described as unacceptable, resulting in the BBC’s coverage of the match being suspended.

The Dutch team won by three goals against their Tunisian counterpart, who had already been eliminated from the tournament, topping Group Six Al-Tawahine with seven points from nine.

The Dutch team opened the scoring in the first three minutes with an own goal scored by Elias Al-Sakhiri.And when Brian Brobby scored the second goal just four minutes later, a big score seemed close and on the horizon.

It didn’t quite work out that way as Hazem Mestouri scored Tunisia’s second goal of the tournament in the fifty-fourth minute.

Tottenham Hotspur’s new signing Jan-Paul van Heeke restored the two-goal gap in favor of manager Ronald Koeman’s men, securing their 3-1 victory.

Before the start of the second half, the match witnessed a rare incident as only 10 players from the Tunisian squad entered the field for the start with the absence of own goal scorer Skhiri.

Referee Katya Itzel Garcia, officiating her first World Cup game, noticed this lack of numbers as the African team was about to kick off and quickly blew the whistle to stop the proceedings.

Al-Hikma then had to explain to several players who appeared confused that Al-Sakhiri had not yet entered the field.

It took less than twenty seconds from that point before Al-Sakhiri was able to break onto the field, running down the tunnel to the audible cheers of the fans in Kansas City.

Steve Wilson, the main commentator of the match, said about it on the air of the British BBC network“The Tunisian player was desperately trying to draw Hikma’s attention to the fact that they only had ten players on the pitch. In fact, they still only have ten players there. They are missing one player.”

Commentator Stephen Warnock asked. “How?”

Former Liverpool and England defender Stephen Warnock continued his speech, saying: “This is unbelievable. You know time is running out and you need to get out faster. Ronald Koeman is very angry and he has every right to be. He says: “How could this happen? This is unacceptable.”
