That moment arrived in the 86th minute, when Hadj Moussa received the ball on the right, cut inside onto his left foot, and unleashed a superb curling shot into the far corner to give Algeria the lead.

The final whistle confirmed a strong showing from Algeria, who combined efficiency, defensive order, and a moment of individual brilliance to take the win. The Netherlands, meanwhile, showed flashes of danger but lacked precision in the decisive moments as both sides continue their preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Eastern Time: 2:45 PM

Pacific Time: 11:45 AM

Some big-time names have been called for Algeria, including goalkeeper Luca Zidane, and midfielders Nabil Bentaleb, Houssem Aouar and forwards Riyad Mahrez and Amine Gouiri.

It won’t be an easy debut for Lionel Messi and Argentina. However, they also lost in their 2022 World Cup debut only to come back and win the whole tournament. While they want to avoid that same scenario, Algeria will pose a real challenge for the defending champions.

Algeria’s style is a beautiful brand of soccer

Algeria’s soccer players have one thing in common: they are very technical and great with the ball on their feet. They are very educated in the buildup and will absolutely punish the defense if given space.

Hence, Argentina will have to be very careful when defending. As the saying goes, “the best defense is a great offense,” and that might be the case here. As long as you keep Algeria defending instead of controlling the tempo of the game, the better the chances of beating them.

Algeria’s goal for 2026 World Cup

Sharing Group J of the 2026 World Cup with Argentina, Austria, and Jordan, it’s not exactly an easy group to go through to the next round. Still, Algeria should see it as an opportunity to qualify. In fact, Austria and Algeria are almost at the same level in the FIFA Rankings.

Austria are ranked 24th before the World Cup, while Algeria are just below at 29. Hence, their level is basically the same. They will fight to get that second spot, or at least qualify as one of the best third places. As for Jordan, they’re ranked 63 in the globe.

Algeria have taken advantage of being the home team so far. They shared group A with Mozambique, Libya, and Ethiopia, but didn’t have much trouble to advance in the championship. Their results weren’t very dominant, though they won their three games 1-0. Their journey includes being undefeated along with not having conceded one goal in any of them.

The path for Ivory Coast wasn’t as smooth as the one of their opponents. They were in group B with Senegal, Uganda, and D.R. Congo, where the best two teams were moving on to the next round.

The two leaders of group A face each other and it is undoubtedly a reason to be attentive, not only because they are the two best teams, but also because the group could be defined here (of course, also with the game that the other two will play simultaneously members, Ethiopia and Libya).

Algeria have won both of their games and thus have already secured their ticket to the next round, no matter what the outcome of this match is. The ones who are forced are Mozambique, since a defeat could leave them out if Ethiopia beat Libya by 2 goals difference. However, the tie would be enough for them to move on to the next phase.

Ethiopia had a good result during their first game, they drew against Mozambique 0-0. It is unlikely that they can win this game but their defense looks much better than ever.

Algeria did not qualify for the Qatar 2022 World Cup after a heartbreaking ending in their last game. It was a head-to-head against Cameroon to determine who was going to the big event. They won 1-0 away, but in the rematch these teams went to overtime. The Algerians score the go-ahead goal with two minutes left, although the Cameroonians did so in the last play of the aggregate. This may be an ideal opportunity for them to leave that behind since they are the home squad.

Libya were very far from that reality in the qualification. They were a bit unlucky with the draw since they had to play vs Egypt, Gabon, and Angola. In that round the Egyptians were the ones that advanced because only the first place moved on. At least they had a pair of wins along with a tie in six games that showed some level.
