Denmark vs. Tunisia FIFA World Cup 2022: DEN, TUN share points after goalless stalemate Denmark and Tunisia tied for first place in their FIFA World Cup 2022 opener on Tuesday at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan. Both teams played to a scoreless draw, but Tunisia will go away with their heads held high to prevent Denmark from winning. Tunisia played with vigor throughout the 90 minutes, particularly in the first half. Kasper Schmeichel denied striker Issam Jebali.
