00:00the desert foxes Algeria in all white their traditional colors gold and green the reserve
00:10of South Africa's Bafana Bafana they'll hope that well it is a gold studded performance that they
00:18can put to the fore out here tonight to deliver is the end waves it in easily avated that is
00:28left to roll out here for a throw and kept in play by Algeria now trying to chest that down use on the
00:39roll looking for support looks up and picks the cross the shot comes in goalkeeper Hulu doing just
00:46enough to keep that away get fly there's he in not letting off the pedal here good cross it was from
00:56a huge brilliant combination but way too much space afforded here in the end is it taking the
01:02goalkeeper looking to build here solid out onto the flank the suku pacey as they come has support from
01:12Terence Macheho crosses the ball in let arrival there from Neomahema just miscued it Algeria and
01:21characteristic in South Africa very experienced players on this team 35 years of age center back
01:31that sometimes can operate as a right back at South Africa now spring into action looking to twist and
01:36turn the cross coming in danger averted here by Adem Alilette through the center of the park looking for
01:43Bilal out through the center now spreading it out to the right just arriving Reda Mohamed Reda with a cross
01:50it's communication there between the goalkeeper and his defense but it's a needs must and the ball is put
01:55away going total they've made six times and Algeria to have the upper hand winning two of those games and
02:01losing just one the rest are draws one shot from distance pretty speculated Alilette forward to the
02:13flank looking for Ziani nice back heel from Miziani create space and an opportunity to pick across good
02:21cross ball bounces settles down well time to plunge it but the block is excellent here from South Africa
02:27Algeria coming very very comments the two teams that last met in this tournament back in 2011 was a
02:36quarter-final match Aziz takes a shot and it blows it to the back of the net goalkeeper doing enough in his
02:47opinion but turns out that shot packed quite the venom and Algeria strike once again to take the lead
02:55Abedno Belchocini it gave that much space to an obvious threat 28 years of age the opportunity landing
03:07solidly right here for him wasted no time set it in motion with one decisive struck goalkeeper
03:15Sabokelo well finding that he was just not up to the task and it gives the lead to Algeria
03:23Algeria one South Africa nil from the desert foxes they already have the lead here after 32 minutes of
03:30action then get to the flank looking to get into position long crossing was a well-weighted cross
03:39numbers and then it spreads it out to Terence Machero out on the flank and weave across yes it does easily
03:47avanted and a chance for a rebound shot playing box to box at the moment exerting himself at every
03:54possible opportunity and that's a check ball trying to drop it into the box area a bit of trouble here
03:59goalkeeper running into prevent the danger there player going down in the box area and quite some
04:06pain there'll be questions once again Keegan Johanna fit of the replay brilliantly hoisted ball into the
04:14box and able to deal with it decisively did he get a touch very very very fine margins Malibong way
04:22course at the very very good ball and interval in this game then to tighten it up and a half time
04:32speaking of which not too far off as Algeria now have to trick back to defend the flag stays down
04:37momentarily short comes in will it count the flag stays down the equalizer coming right at the death
04:46Bafana Bafana strike back right here at the Nelson Mandela Stadium and it erupts with cheer
04:55they have been struck and punished for not being decisive questions on whether that was an offside
05:01looked like he was played on there for that moment Masuku the pesi player and when the ball fell
05:07none was waiting other than Tabiso Kutumela to plunge it to the back of the net defense parted all
05:16together and the scoreboard restores the parity Algeria one South Africa one charges to stay focused
05:28on the task despite the time but they won't have to do that for long because they now and themselves
05:34are considerably South Africa to restart all the way to the defense South Africa doing themselves a
05:55brilliant job to come back in the dying embers of the first half possessed the desert foxes now have
06:03a chance to counter your teeny loses possession picked up well center of the park Kutumela Neomayama setting it
06:11on looking for support 360 turn leaves them really takes the shot and it's all target well chested down by Kutumela
06:19when the opportunity presented itself under immense opposition at 360 turn and then a shot that did miss by March
06:27oh they have to close him down they cannot afford continue to afford giving him that much well vehemently expressing his dissatisfaction at how they handled that situation but here comes a counter attack here from Algeria the shot flimsy
06:41a top back in cleared off the line by the goalkeeper South Africa survived by the skin of their teeth
06:47Samukelo
06:50taking this one on this time round we just have another instance of the earlier situation a slip and a fall
06:56almost affording the desert foxes the opportunity the shot off target but turned out to be
07:02just the perfect opportunity for Miss Ayan to take that shot quite up to the task was the goalkeeper
07:10Samukelo
07:11just about going for the cross himself and thought better Reda Mohammed Reda and now up front
07:17the peel is off the flag stays down the shot goes back in
07:21in the end still making sure that nothing gets past him
07:26Oulu had already closed him down it's a brilliant attempt there from
07:31Ziani just unable to get the better of the South African shortstopper
07:36and to devastating effect it was
07:41ball out onto the flank South Africa exposed Algeria on the attack they have the moment they have the opportunity
07:51first is the shot but takes a bit too long it's a free kick here for the desert foxes
07:55no Belchicini puts that over the bar hardly trouble the goalkeeping sports and patterns in very intricate and small spaces out on the flank
08:08support incoming racing in chance for a cross in here bent in but nobody able to deal with it and Chetty
08:14will avat that and put it out here for a corner the parameters acceptable in a contact sport
08:21throw in Gloodlo pumps a long ball to the box area not cleared well enough the shot comes in but
08:28a bit of a difficult situation to take the shot and that just goes out wide here for nothing more
08:34possession is in favor over Algeria
08:39looking to make the break opportunity right out onto the flank spacing that ball into the wing
08:43can they keep it in play yes they can
08:45cut back
08:47and that's off the touch this time once again not on target and the frustration pretty evident
08:59South Africa had been allowed to sleep and he had just risen to the occasion unfortunately the center of
09:07the park nice pickup now looking to stride forward Wade Wester tries to cross the ball and able to control
09:14Neil Miami a lot more tries to take his long range shots I wasn't poised well enough for him and the ball just goes
09:21away at it by Chetty and Zaini was the ball for six support here from Zakaria draw and now back to the midfield
09:30still holding it up nice linker play here between the desert foxes and out teasing it up they have a man on the
09:35flag shot comes in and it's wide the offside flag says just linking up intricately and South Africa were left chasing shot
09:41the question is where was the offside there not so sure the assistant referee got that right at least from this
09:48point of view could say Algeria had definitely intercepted nice pickup and spread to the flank on the attack here comes
09:59the desert foxes setting it in looking to twist and turn the cross is clear support was coming the wind out of him just landing on that with him
10:08a bit of a scuffle here South Africa look to get away with the ball players on the ground chance coming up short from distance
10:24and Algeria launching the counter-attack quickly cut away exceptional defending here from South Africa and turning defense into attack and load low
10:27in possession Malibongue Corsa tries to take a shot from distance goalkeeper spills that and the defense is there to mop up the mess
10:46mostly here and powering their way forward Algeria Ziani gets the ball back again
10:51Ziani looking to spread out onto the flank here Algeria in the box step over one player goes to the ground
10:58referee holds his whistle
11:05will that be a penalty the referee does not acknowledge or could be a very controversial moment at the tail end of this game stack a foot out there
11:13from the first instance looks like he got the man
11:16referee wasn't quite convinced
11:20referee had a split second to make the decision
11:22it could be a potentially dangerous place to be here
