The Cup

1985

Since football left the stadiums and took root in people's minds, it has become a problem. It is an even more terrible social phenomenon when it comes to the Tunisian Cup final. For Mustapha, Hassan, Hédi, and Rached, the event begins on Saturday evening. What matters tomorrow is the victory of the favorite team. On Sunday, the city is celebrating. In the stands, the crowd is in a trance. On the field, the result does not satisfy the desires of our four supporters. It's a disaster. Fights and injuries. Violence and bitterness. Each of the four supporters must nevertheless return home and face their families. For Mustapha, there is no question. His case is clear. He won the sports promotion. Nothing else matters.
