Tunisia coach Roger Lemerre has admitted that Nigerian dangerman Jay Jay Okocha will be impossible to shackle in Wednesday's African Nations Cup semi-final.
But the Frenchman believes that the key to winning will be to quash those Super Eagles who feed off Okocha's supply line.
"This is going to be a technical challenge," said Lemerre. "We can't take the ball off the feet of Nwankwo Kanu or Okocha.
"We can't neutralise Jay Jay Okocha. But if we cannot neutralise him then perhaps the others can be neutralised - Kanu, John Utaka, those players who are capable of receiving the passes.
"But the Tunisian players also have talent," added Lemerre who has already achieved his first objective - taking Tunisia, who have never won the title, into the last four.
The prize for Wednesday's winners will be a final date on Saturday against either 1976 winners Morocco or Mali.
