Algeria Confirms Spot for the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations

Posted : 11 April 2023
With two games remaining in their qualification group, Algeria's 1-0 away victory against Niger on Monday sealed a top-two finish and a spot at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations finals.

They will be included in the 24-team field for the finals in the Ivory Coast in January, joining neighbors Morocco who qualified last Friday without kicking a ball.
The Central African Republic, Nigeria, Congo, Guinea, and Sudan, who had never previously advanced to the finals, were also victorious on Monday.

Baghdad Bounedjah of Algeria snuck through the defense to give the visitors the lead in the fifth minute as they cruised to win in Tunis, where Niger hosted the match because their own stadium was deemed unfit for international competition.

Coach Djamel Belmadi made eight alterations for Monday's Group F match to highlight the depth at his disposal after Algeria had to come from behind to defeat the same team at home last week, with Riyad Mahrez scoring the game-winning goal in the 88th minute.

Nigeria, which has a large number of players with European residences, was humiliated by Guinea Bissau last Friday in a shocking home loss but recaptured first place in Group A with a 1-0 victory in the second leg. They reached nine points after Moses Simon's penalty in the 30th minute.
