Algeria is steadily progressing towards AFCON 2023. Following their impressive 5-1 victory over Cape Verde, the Fennecs are set to wrap up this international window by taking on Egypt. In his pre-match press conference on Sunday, October 15, Coach Djamel Belmadi expressed his determination to erase the disappointment of Cameroon’s group-stage elimination in the last Africa Cup of Nations. He remarked, “Our experience in the previous tournament in Cameroon was disheartening as we were eliminated in the first round. However, we hold high ambitions to deliver strong performances in Côte d’Ivoire.”
Regarding the upcoming clash against the Pharaohs, Djamel Belmadi anticipates a formidable challenge. He noted, “This promises to be an intriguing and fiercely contested match between two brotherly nations. The two teams haven’t crossed paths for quite some time, and I believe it will be an excellent encounter between two high-quality squads.” Undoubtedly, it’s a derby match, and previous encounters between these nations have always been intense and highly competitive. Therefore, we can look forward to an exciting match.
