Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Jordan is hosting Algeria for another epic battle.
- 5' Jordan are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Algeria backline.
- 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Jordan side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Vladimir Petković might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 20' Algeria has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 25' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 30' Jordan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Algeria that had 4 games and scored 5 goals.
- 36' Jordan is taking the lead after the goal scored by Nizar Al Rashdan on 36.
- 41' Jordan are deployed in a 3-4-3 today, looking to exploit space against Algeria's 4-3-3 shape.
- 44' That looks like a foul for a card for Ramiz Zerrouki.
- 46' Algeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Nadhir Benbouali is hanging Hicham Boudaoui on the field on 46 minute.
- 51' Zinedine Belaid has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 56' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rafik Belghali made 230 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 61' named a 3-4-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-3-3 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 64' That looks like a foul for a card for Husam Abu Dahab.
- 69' Nadhir Benbouali has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 69 minutes.
- 74' Over 74 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 76' Another substitution for Algeria to replace Riyad Mahrez by Anis Moussa on 76 minute.
- 81' Jordan currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 82' What a strike from Amine Gouiri! The score is 1-2.
- 85' Ali Azaizeh is replacing Musa Al Taamari for the Jordan side.
- 90' The 30-year-old Yazan Al Arab has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- Full Time. Algeria beats Jordan
