Djamel Belmadi and Saïd Benrahma almost pulled the pin this Monday on the sidelines of Agérie’s friendly draw against Egypt (1-1). The Fennecs coach grabbed his player by the collar when he refused to greet him during his substitution.
Author of a disappointing performance during the friendly match between Algeria and Egypt (1-1), this Monday in the United Arab Emirates, Saïd Benrahma did not appreciate being replaced by Houssem Aouar shortly after the hour The talented attacking midfielder from West Ham did not wish to greet Djamel Belmadi, which had the gift of annoying his coach. Annoyed by the lack of respect from his player, the technician held him then grabbed him at the collar.
Close to coming to blows, the two men first briefly stared at each other before exchanging a few words. The Fennecs coach finally let Saïd Benrahma sit on the bench to follow the rest of the match.
Atal decisive passer despite controversy in France
Manhandled for a long time by the teammates of Mohamed Salah and Nantes player Mostafa Mohamed, although reduced to ten men, the Algerians ended up snatching the equalizer in added time. Following a failure by the Egyptian Omar Marmoush, the Fennecs embarked on a final attempt.
Served on the right side, Nice’s Youcef Atal delivered a superb cross to the head of Islam Slimani. A great reaction from the OGC Nice defender despite the controversy affecting him in France and the opening of legal proceedings against him for “apology of terrorism”.
A decisive pass from the Gym side and an equalizer for Algeria at the end of the suspense which will perhaps ease tensions a little within the Fennecs group. And in particular between the fiery Djamel Belmadi and Saïd Benrahma.
