Benyeghzer and Djalit offer two new medals to Algeria
U18 Arab Arab Championships
The Hurdlers Mohamed Benyeghzer (110m/hedges) and Narimène Djalit (100m/hedges) improved by two medals the Algerian harvest to the 11th edition of the Arab Championships under 18, currently underway in Tunisia, by gleaning money and bronze respectively during the second day of competition, Sunday, at the Tunis Sports Complex (Tunis).
Two more medals which carry the provisional total of the national selection at five (1 gold, 2 silver and 2 bronze), pending the progress of the other finals, some of which are planned in the evening. The only gold medal collected by Algeria so far was the work of the excellent Abdelkader Mahrez, at 10,000 meters/walking, with a time of 47: 18.58, in front of the Tunisian Mountadher Nedjlaoui (49: 04.09) and the Egyptian Youcef Mohcen Ramadan (53: 33.63).
The second silver and bronze medals, in addition to those of Benyeghzer and Djalit, were the work of Mouatez Belhabib, in long jump and Fatma Zohra Guessoum, at 5000 meters/walking. Belhabib had finished in second place in his competition, with a leap measured at 6.94 meters, while Guessoum had succeeded in a time of 25: 17.64, thus ending behind the Tunisian Nour Aoun (24: 45.49), and Fatima Messikh (25: 13.78). The competition will continue until August 27, with the participation of the Algerians who are present in full, among 34 athletes (boys and girls), most of which have made their minimum qualification during the Elite & young sports talent days. In addition to Fatma Zohra Guessoum, the national selection is made up of, among other things, two athletes in the U17 category: the middle distance Yasmine Bouallaga, which will be aligned on the 800 meters, and the Salsabil Bounemeur sprinters, engaged on the 100 meters and the 200 meters.
