Coelho calls Tunisia squad for Mozambique clash06/11/2009 Tunisian coach Humberto Coelho on Thursday (November 5th) called his final 23-player squad for the November 14th World Cup qualifier against Mozambique. Returning players include Greuther Furth's Sami Allagui and Al-Ittihad star Amine Chermiti. The Portuguese coach said he decided to bring Chermiti back after noting his stellar performance with the Saudi club. Omissions include midfielders Nabil Taider, Lassaad Nououi and goalkeeper Farrouk Ben Mustapha, whose spot will be taken by Sfaxien keeper Jassem Khalloufi. The Tunisians leave for a training camp in Djerba on November 9th. Coehlo explained that the Djerba site will allow players to get accustomed to the hard, synthetic pitch surface they will encounter in Maputo. With 11 points, the Carthage Eagles currently top Group B. Nigeria's Super Eagles, who are in second place with 9 points, also have a November 14th game. They will face Kenya in Nairobi.
