Already qualified for the 2026 World Cup, which will take place next summer in the United States, Canada and Mexico, Algeria finished the qualifications by beating Uganda yesterday in Tizi-Ouzou, 2 goals to 1.
It was therefore almost logical that Uganda opened the scoring, even if the Algerians managed to equalize later in the match, from the penalty spot (1-1, 81′). This match will be a story of penalties, since Petkovic’s players take advantage of another penalty moments later, but this time it also hurts players.
Buoyed by the momentum of the equalizer, the Algerian team continued to impose its rhythm against an overwhelmed Ugandan team. The constant pressure from the Greens ended up causing another fatal error. On a long aerial opening towards Amine Gouiri, the opposing goalkeeper rushed out and completely missed his intervention, hitting the Algerian attacker head-on. A violent shock which forced the two players to leave the pitch, injured. In the process, the referee logically designated the penalty spot. Mohamed Amoura, already a scorer earlier in the game, stood out again by transforming the award, thus becoming the top scorer in these qualifiers with 10 goals, ahead of Mohamed Salah.
Dominant but clumsy for a long time, the Fennecs won with two penalties converted by Mohamed Amoura in the final minutes. Bad news with the injury of Amine Gouiri, hit in the shoulder and evacuated on a stretcher.
On an uncontrolled exit, the Ugandan goalkeeper violently collides with Amine Gouiri in his area. While falling, the doorman was also injured, evacuated a few moments later on a stretcher, in a side safety position. The intervention was longer for the OM striker, evacuated on a stretcher and by car, with a head bandage after long minutes of intervention. RS
