Algeria Walks over Senegal & Reached The Quarter-finals

Algeria reached the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals as Group C runners-up after beating Senegal.

Sofiane Feghouli missed a great early chance when his poor touch allowed Bouna Coundoul to save at his feet.

Leicester’s Riyad Mahrez struck the opener when played in by a free-kick and Tottenham’s Nabil Bentaleb drove in from 18 yards after the break.
Senegal were still going through until Ghana’s late winner against Algeria put the Black Stars through instead.

It was a deserved victory for Algeria, who produced the more fluid football throughout despite not quite playing at their best.
