on the verge of elimination, the Fennecs play their survival, follow the CAN 2022 meeting

Reigning African champions, undefeated for 34 games before the start of the competition, winners of the Arab Cup a month ago, the Algerians were among the favorites before the start of this CAN 2022. However, they are on the verge of elimination, Thursday, January 20, before facing Côte d’Ivoire.

A draw against Sierra Leone (0-0) and a surprise defeat against Equatorial Guinea (1-0), force Djamel Belmadi’s players to victory to get a glimpse of the round of 16. Opposite, Côte d’Ivoire, already qualified, intends to reassure themselves after a draw conceded in the last moments against the Leone Stars (2-2). The Elephants could also take their revenge against Algeria, after the quarter-final lost on penalties during the last edition of the CAN.
