After Ghana - Can Tunisia Make it Two?

In all likelihood, Tunisia will follow the majority of Africa’s World Cup teams today, and bow out of the competition. They face a tough opponent in the Ukraine this afternoon, but still have a slim chance of joining the round of 16. Here’s the scenario, courtesy Bob at WorldCupBlog:

Tunisia can advance to the round of 16 with a win over Ukraine if Saudi Arabia doesn’t beat Spain and if they finish with a superior goal difference (Tunisia currently -2, Saudi Arabia -4).

Togo, meanwhile, play France in their final World Cup game - likely in the role of whipping boys, as a desperate France need to win by a heap of goals to stand a chance of going through.
