red shirts (a reminisence of the World Cup qualifier for 1990?, Algeria

Algeria by a short player corner, #12 (Mohammed Barakat?) curves into the
penalty area and scores by a low diagonal shot from about 14 meters - 1:0
-('12) Algeria does just
the same short played corner trick, Egypt seem to have defended but cannot
clear the ball and eventually, after a Nader save, a close range low shot
(#10 Tasfaout) makes it 1:1 - great assist by #19 Belmadi who had been
able to unleash the first shot against three defenders
-('17) #12 attacks Dziri
and conquers the ball, makes a cross from the right hand side, the keeper
does not get it and behind him sits Sabry almost on the ground, all alone,
heading into the net - 2:1
-('20) all chances goals
yet, but now an Algerian free kick into the wall
-('25) Algeria make a first
substitution (#17 for #2)
- Egypt is in control
of most of the game, playing attacking football like against Morocco, but
do not look as if their defence can cancel out possible Algerian counter
attacks completely
-('31) it is getting dangerous
again after an Algerian corner, this time a flying cross ball but the header
does not find the goal
-('37) free kick cross
from the left, Nader doesn't get it a header attempt and eventually a spectacular
overhead by Mecabih kick into the goal from close range - 2:2
-Algerians do not get up,
free kick for Egypt right after the kick off:
- ('39) it is played
indirect (trick) and #5 ElSakka?scores by a surprise shot at the first
goal post - 3:2
-('42) Algeria replace their
keeper (#16 for #1)
-('injury time) Algeria
dominate the final minutes of the half, has a shot blocked for a corner
-('injury time) the corner
becomes modt dangerous again, Nader already beaten and a defender scratching
the ball off the line in the last moment
halftime 3:2
Algeria rather encouraged
by their own goals than shocked by the Egyptian answers were getting stronger
and stronger during the half and it has become a good match of two well
attacking teams which look vulnurable on the other side in some particular
types of defending situations

have a chance after a low cross from the left hand side but it fades into
emptyness
-('52) Egypt: a distance
shot by #11 tips on the bar and goes out

domination and some half dangerous scenes, among them one in which they

was brought down the referee waves on

central to the goal, 23 meters, Belmadi shoots wide by one meter

-('81) Algeria: thrid substitution
-Though few goal scenes
it is a good match

builds up and loses balls early - an Egyptian player penetrates the penalty
area seeks the penalty and gets - a yellow card
-('85) Algeria: a mistimed
cross threatens to surprise Nader but he is concentrated and plucks it
down before it crosses the goalline
-'('89) the deciding
counter: through ball #13 Salah on #11 Tarek Said, he chips it over the
keeper - 4:2

attackers pressure the Egyptian defenders furiously and desperate, but
they can escape the trap and set up another counter:
-(Injury time) it is
three against one and the cross is taken directly by Tarek Said for his
second - 5:2
-(injury time) Algerians
keep attacking bravely
-('injury time) the disappoitment
leads to first tensions in a relatively fair match - Benarbia gets yellow
for stopping an Egyptian counter by a foul
-after 7 minutes injury
time it's over
final result 5:2
a tough result for unlucky
Algerians who could have gone with a draw into halftime and in the final
minutes paid with goal difference for opening up |
