Veteran Saudi Arabia striker Sami Al-Jaber was disappointed that his late strike against Tunisia was not enough to secure all three points for his side.

The 33-year-old Al-Hilal forward came off the substitute's bench to fire the Saudis ahead with only six minutes left only for Radhi Jaidi to head a stoppage-time equaliser for the north African side as the match ended 2-2.

"We were unlucky to let a goal in one minute before the end," said Al-Jaber.

"Now we have one point. It is not the end of the competition for us. We have to work hard against Ukraine.

"I am still recovering (from a thigh injury) and I will do everything possible to recover to be ready for that match."

Midfielder Mohammed Ameen added: "Our second-half performance will motivate us to play equally well against Ukraine.

"We are sure they will show another performance than they played against Spain today."
