00:00Liberia and the Togo are on the road, that means the two teams will then...
00:05So, we are waiting for the anthems, are then nice and quiet, and then we'll see what's going on.
00:22Disappointing, disappointing, unheard of behavior when playing the national anthem for Ecuador.
00:27Developed in the course of the game.
00:33Played against each other in the framework of the Africa Cup of Nations.
00:37Not in the qualification, but the visitors, almost this arena, this stadium,
00:41whether they have a good look at it on a Friday in Lomé.
00:51The WEM quali is also going well, they shoot few goals in the four games at the WEM qualification.
00:57And Bounidja, you remember, that was the football fan in the tactical setup.
01:27What an idea he has in midfield today.
01:57Salvador, he made us, if I remember correctly, a lot of fun at the Africa Cup.
02:13One of the very consistent...
02:16So I have to find the way to get in front of the opponents.
02:20That it doesn't always work out, yes, I know.
02:24A little offside.
02:32Bounidja drops him off and then steps away.
02:36Cat, no corner.
02:47Meta.
02:49It's Maré.
02:51Oh, it's over the bar.
02:56Oh, we can't believe it.
03:04A shake of the head.
03:09A shake of the head.
03:13A shake of the head.
03:15A shake of the head.
03:20But a brilliant chance for...
03:22Around for about five years.
03:33And now it might fall into the path of Benrama.
03:35Benrama, surely an opportunity to open the scoring wall.
03:39A one.
03:41Carries that opportunity.
03:43Just the outstretch.
03:45Here come Algeria.
03:46Marés.
03:47Goes around the outside.
03:49And it's well defended.
03:50Not the easiest of angles, but look at this overlap here.
03:53From Aissa Mandi.
03:55Damage here.
03:57It's another whipped in ball.
03:58This time it does meet the head of the white man in white.
04:01Position of the ball.
04:02Here's Savcoco.
04:03Driving up the number 60.
04:05Coco earns a foul.
04:06And this is a very promising position for a free kick.
04:12Also another possibility.
04:13It's going to be Coco though.
04:15Coco and blazing over.
04:18In Algeria.
04:24At pace.
04:25It still might fall though to Mandi.
04:27If he can get his head up.
04:30It's going to be Benrama with the right boots.
04:32And this is perfectly floated in.
04:35It's going to be a free kick.
04:36And it's cut out by the fullback.
04:42Now Marés.
04:43Goes through the player.
04:45And that will be a free kick again to Algeria.
04:47It's cut out by the fullback.
04:49Ndong.
04:50Ndong racing forward.
04:51Ndong, that's neat work.
04:54Draws the foul again.
04:59The in-swinging right footer.
05:01And it goes all the way to the back post.
05:03And it's smothered.
05:07Tries to go along this time to Marés.
05:09That's a lovely ball to spread the play.
05:13Can Algeria make something of this?
05:17Manages to nearly get into the path here.
05:19Luis Azurre.
05:21Team in red.
05:25A long-range effort.
05:26And it has to be tipped over the bar.
05:29How is that for a strike from Nestor Senna?
05:35Into his number 8.
05:37Yannick Bouyla.
05:38Oh, nearly through.
05:39Algeria looking to go around the outside.
05:42It might fall quite kindly to Benraba.
05:44And now across.
05:45And Algeria still picking them apart with the spaces.
05:49As we see here through Hacham.
05:52A 21-year-old young boys player might get here.
05:55A 21-year-old young boys player might get here at the end of this cross.
06:05It's quite unorthodox.
06:06And Alts decides to go across the line.
06:10And appeals.
06:13Across the byline and headed out.
06:15And now falling to the Algerian player.
06:17And it will be a deflection.
06:21Now looking over the top wall.
06:25Side Benraba.
06:30Riyad Mahrez.
06:36Mahrez with the left foot.
06:38And it's when Yannick nearly finds the man at the back post.
06:41He appreciated that and comes to Awad.
06:44Into the park.
06:47With the longer routes and Benraba.
06:50He has been called back.
06:52Pass over the top.
06:53Trying to find the left back Hacham.
06:55Hacham with the early ball and it has to be well cleared.
06:58To the centre-back Salcoco.
07:00And he has to watch out here.
07:03Very lucky indeed.
07:08He didn't quite get the foul on.
07:11And tries to spread it and it will come to the full-back.
07:13Racing on.
07:14Dong.
07:15Or rather Awad.
07:18Awad tries to go between the lines but.
07:21To Awad.
07:22A neat flick from the back.
07:24And straight at the goalkeeper.
07:25And there we go.
07:26The opening goal.
07:29Husem Awad.
07:32It was Riyad Mahrez's strike with his left foot.
07:35And Jesus Owono couldn't keep the ball in his gloves.
07:41Husem Awad makes sure that he pays the ultimate price.
07:50And that's Algeria's goal.
07:54A goal a long time in the making.
07:59It sets their campaign off.
08:03Along with the fireworks above the stadium.
08:07A much better delivery this time.
08:09And now on the edge of the box.
08:10And well defended.
08:14Buneja.
08:16All over the number 21.
08:18And now it does make it through.
08:20Surely this should be the icing on the cake.
08:24And finally.
08:25Yes finally.
08:26Algeria have their second.
08:31Amine Farid Gouri.
08:33The Stade Rennais man.
08:38Gives the scoreline the gloss it needed.
08:41And propels Algeria to the top of Group E.
08:44All of Equatorial Guinea was looking to play up the field.
08:48Caught through with one ball.
08:52A fortuitous deflection into the path.
08:56Of Amine Farid Gouri.
