Secondly the Algerian coach beat Rohr head to head.
Thirdly he an AFCON championship.
Fourthly, his tea have had a great run of games with good performances and was not stinking up the place unlike Mr. Rohr's team.
Fifthly wake me up when Algeria loses to repeatedly to rubbish teams.
Sixthly, everything comes to an end.
Finally, you're correct football ain't mathematics and anyone can lose against anyone on a match day.
Algeria coach this, Algeria coach that. They couldn't beat Sierra Leone, now they have lost to Equatorial Guinea. Is he still a very good coach? Or can we now call him a poor coach just like we have called Rohr? Now we see that football is not mathematics.

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
Some are still insisting that the standard of football at AFCON is poor. Well, if this EG victory isn’t a sign of improved parity in African football then I don’t know what is
Cheers.
Cheers.
Algeria 0-1 EQ Guinea
This has to be one of the biggest upsets in AFCON history, 2nd only to Madagascar defeating the SE 3yrs ago.
Algeria can still qualify if they win their last game against Ivory Coast. A draw and they are on their way back to Algiers.

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
The worst kind of minnows to play are teams like EG, Cape Verde. Strong West African genes, that have all sorts of transplants in Portugal, Spain etc. Algeria tried but no cigar. Good game
Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
It just goes to show in Football, anything can happen.
Any team under the right circumstances, can beat any other team. They all paid their dues to be here, so we should not be too suprised.
That said, it does put a smile on my face when David beats Goliath, especially when Goliath is not my Super Eagles.

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
Folks were shaking about us facing Algeria. What if they finish 3rd, do we face them! Not worried, we play who we play.
Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
I think Algeria is going to come into their game with Ivory Coast 'smoking' and looking desperately to win, else they are going home.

The so called minnows in African football now have access to top players playing in Europe, some of their stars foreign-born like the ones Nigerian don't want in their team.

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
They, even FIFA made me think Algeria is very good, but from these two games I have seen of them, I am very confident we can beat them easily

Is the Algerian coach a poor coach now?

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
It’s not looking good for Algeria, because Côte d'Ivoire just need a draw in that game to qualify. Nah wah oh, all these talk about Algeria doesn’t play with minnows and it’s an abomination for Naija to lose or even draw against so called minnows .

Algeria have been blunt in attack over the past two games. This result shouldn't be that surprising.

It's not the end of the tournament. Algeria can still possibly qualify with a win in their last game against CIV.hestonap wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 9:55 pmI agree its the way the game goes. Yep I agree on paper EQ are the minnow. This could arguably be a fluke result. Last I checked this Algerian team did not repeatedly underperform against minnows like Rohr's team.kawawa wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 9:49 pmCommon on dude. Algeria v EQ. EQ is the rubbish team relatively. Nothing to do with Rohr. Just the way the game goes.hestonap wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 9:45 pmCome on now bro, Firstly the game has not finished and the competition is not yet over for Algeria.
Secondly the Algerian coach beat Rohr head to head.
Thirdly he an AFCON championship.
Fourthly, his tea have had a great run of games with good performances and was not stinking up the place unlike Mr. Rohr's team.
Fifthly wake me up when Algeria loses to repeatedly to rubbish teams.
Sixthly, everything comes to an end.
Finally, you're correct football ain't mathematics and anyone can lose against anyone on a match day.
Anyway great game and for lovers of the game, upsets are great, its not just very nice when its against your own team.
Well done Equatorial Guinea.
Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
The round of sixteen matchups will be very tricky. The way all these so-called favorites are losing points may portend to a former favorite (3rd place finisher) playing against a group leader. Cn you imagine if Nigeria was to play an Algerian team in the next round?
A Person convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.
Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1
Rubbish, I'll call Rohr out cause he is garbage! I bet if Rohr was facing this Algerian team right now we would have lost and heard the same pathetic excuses of us been a "young team" or Algeria having "more star players" blah blah blah, it's such self-defeating postulations that makes me separate winners from losers, EGQ showed us what heart, grit and tactical organization can do for a team no matter the team pedigree.charlie wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 9:58 pmYou do realize your comparison is bogus at best?
This Algeria is not the same team physically or mentally that won it all in 2019.
Secondly, You are actually depriving EQG and their coach and players from this win by making it seem that it was all Rohrs fault.
You guys need to get over your Rohr hatred. It is super childish.
Besides football at this level is not as simple as you are making out to be.

Re: AFCON: Algeria vs Equatorial Guinea 0-1 (FT)
I don’t get your point, you can’t take away what he achieved with this team, now based on the current state of the team he might no longer be the best option for the team and so they might move on just like we moved on from Westerhoff at one point, Keshi at another point after they stopped getting the desired result. But unlike **** he’s definitely achieved more at NT level.Lolly wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 9:59 pmGame don finish now.

Though with different words/phrases, haven't I been saying so for a long time? I say 'any team' can beat 'any team' in any given day, that's all.
