Tunisia's first World Cup was the 1978 competition held in Argentina. They created history by becoming the 1st African team to win a World Cup game, defeating Mexico 3-1. An unlucky 1-0 defeat to Poland followed, but The Eagles Of Carthage then held European giants West Germany to a 0-0 draw. But that wasn't enough to send them through to the knockout rounds. Despite that tournament being one of Tunisia's finest, they failed to qualify for the World Cup again until 20 years later.
