Former Netherlands captain Ruud Krol has agreed on a
two-month contract to coach Tunisia in the African zone World Cup play-offs,
the Tunisian football federation said on its website (www.ftf.org.tn) on
Wednesday
Tunisia have been drawn to meet Cameroon over two legs in
October and November with the winner securing a place at next year's finals in
Brazil.
Krol replaces Nabil Maaloul, who resigned after Tunisia
lost their final group match 2-0 at home to the tiny Cape Verde Islands on
September 7.
The result meant the side missed out on a play-off berth
but they were handed a reprieve just days later when Cape Verde were found to
have fielded an ineligible player and Fifa awarded the match 3-0 to Tunisia,
allowing them to advance to the final stage of African qualifiers.
Krol will also remain as coach of CS Sfaxien, the club he
took to the Tunisian championship in May.
