GOOOAAAL GOAL GOAL GOA FOR ALGERIA! We have the first goal of the match and it’s for the Algerian national team. Youcef Belaïli makes it 1-0 with a header from the center of the box to the center of the goal. Assisted by Hicham Boudaoui.
Pause for rehydration! The match between Algeria and the Rwandan national team is paused by the central referee for the players to go to their benches to cool off due to the hot weather.
Yellow card! The referee shows the first caution of the match and it’s the first for the Algeria team. The number 20 jersey, Atal, is cautioned for a hard foul in midfield.
We passed the first quarter of the match where there has been little excitement at the Stade Chahid Hamlaoui. The home side had possession but could not find the space to create enough danger to score a goal.
CLOSEER! Rwanda is saved from the first! A cross into the box was headed by Maza, but after a slight collision with the Rwandan goalkeeper, his shot that was heading straight for goal, ends up going over the crossbar.
We reached the first ten minutes and we have possession of the locals. The Algerians have 70% possession of the ball, but it hasn’t done them much good as they haven’t reached Rwanda’s area with danger.
The visitors began to do their thing. Enzo Hamon’s shot from the edge of the box went just wide of the post, saving the home side from the first goal of the match.
CLOOSEEERR! We have the first arrival of the match and it was Algeria’s team. A rebound after Mahrez’s shot from outside the box gave Belaili the chance to fire a powerful shot that went just over.
