Just a goal by Belaili at the start of the second half and for Adam Ounas’s Algeria the doors of the Octavi of the African Cup are thrown open. For the Algerian selection a very important victory in the heads-up match against Senegal by Kalidou Koulibaly and Keita Balde, three points that allow now to hold on to the head of the group C standings and think about the next round.
Ounas watched the whole race from the bench while his blue mate Koulibaly was on the field for ninety minutes. “We know our value and we know we can do more. We will prove it said the Italian defender at the final whistle of the defeat. Senegal and Kenya are now paired in the standings at 3 points but, given the better goal difference, Kalidou and his teammates will still need a draw in their last match against Kenya to pass the second round.
