World Cup 2022 highlights: Denmark, Tunisia battle to scoreless draw
The 2022 FIFA World Cup continued Tuesday as Denmark-Tunisia fought to a scoreless standstill as the second game of the day ended in a 0-0 draw. It was a major accomplishment for an underdog Tunisia team against a Denmark squad that reached the World Cup quarterfinals in 2018.

It marked the second straight game in which an underdog punched way above its weight in front of a raucous fan base in Qatar. Early risers witnessed a stunning upset in the first game of the day as Saudi Arabia stunned Lionel Messi and Argentina with a 2-1 win in front of a raucous crowd.

Pregame: Touching moment for Eriksen
Denmark star Christian Eriksen is just under 18 months removed from suffering a cardiac arrest on the pitch in the opening match of the 2021 Euro championships.

Minute 23: Tunisia getting pressure early
Tunisia is keeping things competitive early, and forward Issam Jebali found the back of the net on a breakaway — but the goal was negated due to an offside ruling.
Minute 56: Denmark comes close
It was the Danes' turn to have a goal negated by an offside ruling as forward Andreas Olsen found the back of the net on a rebound. But Olsen knew instantly that the score would not count.
Minute 70: CRAZY sequence
Denmark came excruciatingly close to scoring again, but a great save by Tunisia keeper Aymen Dahmen kept the game scoreless and an attempt on the ensuing corner kick hit the right post.
95th minute: VAR rules no handball
Denmark was nearly awarded a penalty kick in the final minutes of the game after a potential handball in the box on Tunisia, but a VAR review found that the contact was incidental.
