Tunisia dismisses head coach Sabri Lamouchi after their first World Cup game, a move that makes him the first manager in World Cup history to be sacked after just one match. Multiple outlets report the decision follows a heavy 5-1 defeat to Sweden in Tunisia’s tournament opener. Reporting also indicates the change happens quickly—less than 48 hours after the result—and that Lamouchi is removed from his role despite having coached only the opening fixture. Following his dismissal, Tunisia appoints Hervé Renard as the new head coach. Across the coverage, the accounts focus on the timing of the firing, the margin of the loss to Sweden, and the immediate replacement of Lamouchi with Renard. The sources do not provide additional detail on the internal decision-making process, contract terms, or stated reasons beyond the outcome of the opening match. Overall, the reporting presents a decisive managerial change driven by the World Cup result and executed with a fast appointment of a successor.
