突尼斯超级杯(Tunisian Super Cup)是一项由突尼斯足球超级联赛冠军和非洲冠军联赛冠军争夺的赛事。每年7月,上届突尼斯足球超级联赛冠军都会与非洲冠军联赛冠军争夺这项殊荣。

这场比赛是整个非洲最古老的单场淘汰制比赛,它的历史可以追溯到1920年。1962年,这个赛事改名为突尼斯超级杯,以突显它作为一个精英赛事的本质。这项比赛的目标是确定新的突尼斯足球超级联赛冠军和非洲冠军联赛冠军。

尽管它被视为非洲最古老的比赛,但它在全球足球赛事中的地位并不高。这主要是因为非洲足球赛事的水平普遍较低,只有少数几支非洲球队能在国际比赛中表现出色。

此外,突尼斯超级杯也面临一些挑战。近年来,突尼斯足球超级联赛的水平下降,导致一些优秀的非洲球队退出这项比赛。这也让人们对这项赛事的公平性和竞技性产生了质疑。

然而,尽管面临着这些挑战,突尼斯超级杯仍然是一个重要的赛事。它是非洲足球联赛体系中的一部分,为那些希望挑战更高水平比赛的球队提供了一个机会。此外,对于一些非洲球迷来说,这场比赛也是一个狂欢的机会,因为他们可以欣赏到来自非洲各国的优秀球队的激烈对决。
