Tunisia won the African Cup of Nations for the first time Saturday, defeating Morocco 2-1.  

 

Tunisia took the advantage after just five minutes when Dos Santos scored a goal - his fourth of the tournament. But Youssef Mokhtari headed the equalizer seven minutes before the break to also register his fourth goal of the competition. 

 

In the 57th minutes, Morocco’s goal keeper Fouhami made a terrible mistake allowing Ziad Jaziri to put the hosts ahead.
