The Buccaneers boss was proud of his player's defensive display against a physical Tunisian outfit and feels his side can get a goal in the second leg next week.
"It was exactly what we expected, they are a very good team defensively, they make it very difficult for you to break them down and they look to play on the counter," Tinkler said after the game.
"We created a couple of chances in the first half, I thought we could have possibly come in at halftime at 2-0, but a gutsy performance, they were playing on the counter, they caught us once or twice, they were a little bit dangerous but I thought we defended very well.
"We obviously let ourselves down in the dying minutes with the set-piece, which we knew was one of their threats but I thought they got a bit of a lucky bounce and we got punished.
"It ended 1-1, I can't fall fault the boys, I think they all worked extremely hard, nothing gained nothing lost.
"We need to go there and get a goal and we are capable of doing that and then we're back in the tie."
