The Tunisian Football Federation announced the decision on Tuesday. Lamouchi, appointed in January with a two-year contract, managed to secure only one win out of five matches.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the World Cup, Tunisia also faced defeats in warm-up matches against Austria and Belgium. The humiliating loss to Sweden has further complicated their journey. Sweden&#8217;s Ayari scored in the 7th minute of the first half.<\/p>\n<p>The Tunisian Football Federation has now appointed French coach Herv\u00e9 Renard as the new head coach. Renard will take charge until the end of the World Cup campaign, after which negotiations for a permanent contract will take place. Reports suggest Herv\u00e9 Renard will soon arrive in Monterrey to join the team in preparation for their next group match against Japan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tunisia sacks coach Sabri Lamouchi after 1-5 World Cup defeat to Sweden.
