At the level of names, Riyad Mahrez entered history as the oldest player to start a match for Algeria in the World Cup at the age of 35, while Nadhir Ben Bouali scored a historic goal that made him the second Algerian player to score after entering as a substitute in the World Cup.
The Algerian team relied on tactical shifts that highlighted the strength of the attacking depth, especially after the introduction of a station striker who contributed to freeing up Guiri’s movements, which gave the “Greens” a clear advantage in the final third of the field.
On the other hand, the Jordanian team suffered a physical and mental decline in the second half, in addition to its continued struggle with set pieces, which constituted a turning point in the match.
With this victory, the Algerian team raises its score to 4 points and enhances its chances of qualifying, while the Jordanian team leaves the tournament early after its second loss.
