In a crucial rescheduled fixture of the Ligue 1 Mobilis 23rd round, MB Rouissat secured a narrow but significant 1-0 victory over USM Alger in Ouargla on Saturday afternoon. The decisive goal came in the 66th minute from Nadji Ben Kheira, though the scoreline scarcely reflected the open and attacking nature of the game, which saw both teams create numerous opportunities.<\/p>\n
This valuable home win propels MB Rouissat up two places in the general standings, now sharing the 10th position with their opponents, USM Alger, and also with Entente de S\u00e9tif, each club accumulating 36 points.<\/p>\n
The match between MBR and USMA was originally postponed due to USM Alger's participation in the CAF Confederation Cup. USMA famously went on to clinch the continental title, defeating Egypt's Zamalek AC 8-7 in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 aggregate score over two legs.<\/p>\n
Prior to the kickoff of this rescheduled encounter, a heartfelt tradition was observed as the MB Rouissat players formed a guard of honour to congratulate USM Alger's 'Red and Black' squad. This gesture celebrated USMA's remarkable 2025-2026 season, which saw them achieve a historic double by also winning the Algerian Cup against CR Belouizdad with a 2-1 final score. USM Alger still has two outstanding matches to play, against CR Belouizdad and ES Ben Aknoun, to fully update their league calendar.<\/p>\n
