The
Coach
HERY KASPERCZAK helped send
Tunisia to defeat the last time they reached the World Cup in 1978.
Now he wants nothing but success for them. Twenty years ago he was
in the Polish side that beat Tunisia 1-0 in a first round match in Rosario.
Now he would want his Tunisia team to enjoy the same winning feeling he
had as a player. Kasperczak had been in the Poland team that finished
third in the 1974 World Cup in West Germany and has helped to bring to
Tunisia some of the determination and discipline all successful sides need.
Now after being coached by him for three years, Tunisia's 20-year wait
for their second World Cup finals appearance is almost over. As well
as coaching club sides in France, he was in charge of the Ivory Coast team
before taking control of Tunisia in 1994.
