Player to Watch 🌟

After two completely failed AFCONs (eliminated in the group stage) following their 2019 triumph, Algeria kicks off its campaign this Wednesday against Sudan, hoping to start its comeback mission in the best possible way. 

The Fennecs need to redeem themselves, and so does Riyad Mahrez!

The national team captain was a big disappointment in the last Africa Cup of Nations, even starting the decisive final match against Mauritania on the bench.

Mahrez, 34, is playing in one of his last, if not his very last AFCON tournaments. It's up to him to finish on a high note...
