Tunisia coach Nabil Maaloul has admitted that it was his plan to make sure his player's ate during their recent Fifa World Cup warm-up games
During the month of Ramadan, Muslims fast (don't eat or drink) from sunrise to sunset. There's a prescribed time each day for when they are allowed to eat and drink again.
This time occurred during Tunisia's matches against Portugal and Turkey.
The injury strategy was executed during these international friendlies and involved goalkeeper Mouez Hassen feigning injury to allow stoppages in which several players would dash to the touchline to drink water and eat dates.
