Why It Matters
"Nesri" (The Eagles of Carthage) is Tunisia's football nickname — referring to the ancient Phoenician city of Carthage that once rivaled Rome. Tunisia has qualified for six World Cups and is consistently among Africa's strongest sides. The darbouka hand drum sound is the heartbeat of North African football stadiums.
