00:00We'll look to solidify their positions, ladies and gentlemen.

00:05So this is the moment where the 22 players are entering to the pitch.

00:13For Algeria, this qualifier run is an opportunity for redemption.

00:25And we are underway in this Group E encounter.

00:29Match day three of qualifying for the 2025 Total Energies Africa Cup of Nations.

00:38Score against Algeria, at the moment they've got a fending to do.

00:41Mandi into the middle.

00:42Nice idea.

00:43Nice ball in to Mat-Man, Baghdad, Buneja.

00:49It was a very hard ball for him to be able to guide on goal.

00:53It would have been some finish from there.

00:55But the idea was nice from Mandi.

01:00And the ambition was sky-high from Buneja.

01:04Now to Benrama.

01:05Mahrez coming in off the right flank.

01:07Benrama into Buneja.

01:09Unselfish of him.

01:11Lays it off beautifully to Awad.

01:14And Awad cannot guard his shot on target.

01:17But that was nice build-up play from Algeria.

01:21Highly unselfish there from the man whose goals we were talking about.

01:25And the finish was one that he won't want to look back at.

01:29Based on their own domestic leagues in Africa.

01:32And he was part of the team that finished runners-up.

01:34That's a nice ball over the top.

01:35In behind.

01:36Can they make profit here?

01:37Oh, that's an absolutely exquisite goal from Togo.

01:42And he made the difficult look incredibly easy.

01:46Thibaut Clijet.

01:49A big ball over the top.

01:50The first touch killed it.

01:51The second touch.

01:52And Togo have done what no team has done to Algeria in this group before.

01:57Namely, score a goal.

01:59Look at this.

02:01Ball over the top.

02:02Well, there was a little bit of miscommunication between Tugay and the goalkeeper.

02:06Tugay inviting the goalkeeper out didn't happen.

02:08But take nothing away from the finish.

02:10That is absolute perfection from Clijet.

02:13Look at this first touch.

02:15That worked well.

02:17And the second worked even better.

02:19And Togo lead.

02:23And he'll deliver.

02:25His first corner.

02:26Inswinger.

02:28From Márquez.

02:29And it's not fully cleared.

02:30And they're still knocking around inside the area.

02:32And Togo need to get this away.

02:35A fair bit to think about at present.

02:37Inswinger from Benrahma.

02:39And Brunatje just kills it.

02:41And Togo lead.

02:42To think about at present.

02:43Inswinger from Benrahma.

02:45And Brunatje just couldn't get up.

02:48And it looked like it was laser-guided onto his head.

02:52And when it is from that sort of range,

02:54normally finds his way into the back of the net.

02:57Good delivery.

02:58And he just couldn't get enough on it.

02:59If anything at all.

03:01We'll see better from this angle.

03:03Yes.

03:05Nehry.

03:07Dengke again.

03:08Good effort on the volley from Nehry.

03:09I mean, sorry for that.

03:12Dengke.

03:14Well, the idea was nice.

03:17And he was fairly clear from the moment he hit it.

03:22He took it down on his chest.

03:23So that gives you an idea of what Togo are achieving here.

03:26Ball into the middle.

03:27And ball past the post.

03:29Excellent delivery.

03:31And Bezzabaini could not keep his header inside the post.

03:38Great ball in.

03:39Good header.

03:40Rose up well.

03:41And a couple of inches to the left.

03:47And that was surely 1-1.

03:49Good connection from Bezzabaini.

03:52Benrama.

03:53Onto his right foot.

03:54He's out of sight already.

03:55And with his second, he crashes it into the back of the net.

03:58That is a stunning goal from Saeed Benrama

04:02to bring Algeria level.

04:05Absolutely belted it.

04:07His third goal for Algeria.

04:11And that fairly tore into the top left-hand corner.

04:16His first effort.

04:18Curled wide.

04:19But that was absolutely stunning

04:22from the Lyon man.

04:24And Uro Nyeni had absolutely no chance in the Togolese goal.

04:29Feast your eyes on this, especially if you're an Algerian.

04:32Look at that.

04:33Thump. Arrowed into the top corner.

04:37I don't think any goalkeeper in the world is stopping that one.

04:41Really phenomenally clean strike

04:45from Benrama.

04:51And it flew in.

04:55Picture perfect

04:57from Algeria's number 10.

05:01And what can they do here as Algeria come forward?

05:03Buneje!

05:04Can't keep the strike down.

05:06And can't fashion it on target.

05:11But the intent

05:13was absolutely clear from Baghdad Buneje.

05:18He just

05:20sat up and it didn't quite come down before he hit it.

05:23Always rising.

05:27But it's nice stuff

05:29as Benrama's attempt to cross deflects into the path of

05:33Uro Nyeni.

05:34And the cutback was perfection

05:36and it was good defending in the end.

05:40From the wall

05:41that was Benzavaini.

05:45He's been with the club since 2019.

05:55And it was entertaining

05:57in the first half

05:59not having a goal.

06:00And a reminder that Algeria

06:02have won both their 2025 Nations Cup qualifier.

06:05Ramirez can do miracles

06:09but not on this occasion.

06:11A long way out

06:12and there was going to have to be something special

06:15from that sort of distance.

06:20Space down the right-hand side

06:22and it's a goal.

06:24And it's a goal.

06:26And it's a goal.

06:28And it's a goal.

06:30Inside he plays it to Bunajab

06:33and that's surely a penalty

06:35because Bunajab

06:37was fouled.

06:38That's a yellow card for the goalkeeper

06:39as well.

06:41And of all the decisions

06:43that referee Boubou Jarreh

06:45is going to have to make

06:47in his career

06:48that is certainly

06:49one of the easiest.

06:51Fouled

06:54the striker of Algeria was

06:55Algeria was

06:59by Uru Njeni

07:04who will have the chance

07:06to redeem himself

07:09for the evening

07:10and to give Algeria the lead

07:12for the first time

07:14in the game

07:15can he convert the spot kick?

07:17he certainly can

07:18because he's rifled that home

07:21and Algeria

07:22lead by two goals to one

07:24and Saeed Benrahma

07:28doubles his tally

07:29in an Algerian shirt

07:31four goals now

07:32in 31 games

07:35for the 29 year old

07:37and that was fairly emphatic

07:39from the spot

07:42no doubt whatsoever

07:44in Benrahma's mind

07:45for the second time tonight

07:47he beats

07:48the Togolese goalkeeper

07:50Uru Njeni

07:54the wrong way

08:01Saeed Benrahma

08:03skips away from

08:04room for the shot

08:05didn't go so

08:06instead it's Mares

08:07who strikes it

08:08good save from Uru Njeni

08:10and back dab

08:11Bunejat

08:12cannot convert the rebound

08:15well if there was anybody

08:16you wanted it to fall to

08:19it was the man with over 30 goals

08:20for Algeria

08:22Bunejat just

08:23couldn't convert it

08:26good strike from Mares

08:27on his weaker right foot

08:32good save as well

08:35Benrahma

08:36nice ball into the middle

08:38no one was attacking it

08:40Bunejat

08:41here is Awar

08:42Awar into the back of the net

08:44makes it three

08:47it was simplicity in the end

08:49one touch to control

08:51and one to find

08:52the bottom corner

08:53from the edge of the box

08:55and finally

08:57there is daylight

08:58for Algeria

09:00in a game where they fell

09:01behind

09:02they are now

09:03two goals to the good

09:10and Houssem

09:12Awar

09:13has his second goal

09:15of this qualifying campaign

09:17Uru Njeni

09:18possibly

09:19unsighted

09:21where the two players

10:14the ball from

10:15Ainouri

10:16here
