In a momentous night at the Radès Stadium, Espérance Sportive de Tunis etched another glorious chapter in their illustrious history by securing their 33rd Tunisian league title. With a resounding 2-0 victory over US Monastir on the 9th matchday of the Ligue 1 playoffs, our Blood and Gold reaffirmed their dominance over Tunisian football.

The match unfolded in a unique atmosphere. While the players and coaching staff erupted in joy at the final whistle, their celebrations were tinged with a tinge of disappointment. Due to the behind-closed-doors sanction, our fervent supporters were unable to be present to share this moment of triumph with the team. Their absence was deeply felt, and it is to them that this victory is dedicated.

This triumph is the culmination of a remarkable season marked by unwavering consistency and exemplary solidarity. Each player gave their all, and this victory is also a testament to the coaching staff led by Miguel Cardoso. His astute guidance during the playoffs proved decisive, building upon the efforts of Mouine Chaâbani and Tarek Thabet, who played pivotal roles earlier in the season. We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the supporters who, despite the circumstances, continued to back the team with passion and dedication throughout the season.

This 33rd league title is another glittering star in Espérance Sportive de Tunis' rich history. But far from resting on our laurels, this triumph also serves as a source of further motivation for the numerous challenges that lie ahead next season, notably the prestigious FIFA Club World Cup in the USA in 2025.

Once again, congratulations to our players, coaching staff, and all those who contributed to this exceptional season. We are proud of you! Espérance de Tunis continues to write its history with passion and determination.
