Soccer-Anigo quits as coach of Tunisian club

TUNIS, Aug 23 (Reuters) - Former Olympique Marseille coach Jose Anigo has quit as coach of Tunisia's Esperance after just seven games in charge. The 54-year-old Frenchman departed after Saturday's 0-1 home defeat by Al Ahli of Egypt that confirmed Esperance's exit from the African Confederation Cup. Anigo had only joined Esperance in late June and lost five of his seven games in charge. His assistant Bernard Rodriguez, who joined with Anigo, is to take over, club officials said.
