Espérance Sportive de Tunis (EST) continued their winning streak in Ligue 1 with a 2-1 victory over CS Hammam-lif (CSHL) at Radès Stadium this Friday 2nd October 2015.

Team captain Houcine Ragued, unjustly discarded from the Carthage Eagles squad, answered FTF president and the national coach Henryk Kasperczak in the best of manners when he scored Espérance's opener three minutes only after kickoff from an amazing wide range shot (3').

Tunisia international Taha Yassine Khenissi continued his rich vein of form in this Ligue 1 debut, scoring the second goal for the Blood and Gold in the 59th minute.

CSHL did not throw in the towel and pulled one back through Aboudu Issaka (90').

Espérance lineup: Karoui, Mbarki, Chammem (Rabiî 11'), Dhaouadi, Machani, Ragued (c), Coulibaly, Ben Youssef, Rejaibi (Eduok 59'), Bguir and Khenissi (Mhirsi 66').
Yellow cards: Ragued.
