England's talisman and captain gave the 3 lions the reward they deserved for a brilliant start in the 11th minute when he tapped home from close to make it 1-0.

The equalizer came when Fakhreddine Ben Youssef went in the box and the referee pointed to the spot. Ferjani Sassi stepped up and held his composure as he fired his effort into the bottom corner.
