context_page_description: Tunisia participated in the Africa Cup for the first time in 1962. In that year the country came in third by beating Uganda in the consolation final with 3–0. That tournament, however, only 4 countries took part in the tournament. In 1965 Tunisia was allowed to act as host country and made it to the final. The final was lost to Ghana with 2–3.
  Only then did it reach the final again in 1996 and again this time the home country, South Africa, was lost with 0–2. The biggest success in this tournament came 8 years later when Tunisia in its own country reached the final for the third time and this time won. Morocco was defeated in the final with 2–1. Francileudo Dos Santos Silva and Ziad Jaziri scored the goals for Tunisia.
