Manchester United teenager Hannibal Mejbri has loved his involvement with Tunisia.

The 18-year-old switched International allegiances from France to Tunisia and played in three friendlies for the African national this month, including the 1-0 win over Mali last week.

"We were able to react after the defeat [to Algeria] and that is the most important," Mejbri said, via the Manchester Evening News. "It feels good to play for your country.

"It's nice to start with a victory [against DR Congo]. I was well integrated into the group, thank you to the whole team, thank you to the coach.

"We are preparing for big competitions, against big teams. Now we have a match against Algeria and God willing we will give all we can to bring back victory."
