00:00Sudan playing from right to left all in red, Algeria in their familiar white with green touches from left to right
00:17Algeria are the favorites to win Group E
00:30a fact acknowledged by their coach Petkovic
00:35we must accept that responsibility he said
00:39and he has steadied the team since the debacle in Ivory Coast early last year
00:48and in Cameroon two years before that
00:53when Algeria were humiliated finishing at bottom of the group on both occasions
00:59beaten by Mauritania
01:04in the group stage last time around a side that had never won a game before at the tournament
01:11beaten by Equatorial Guinea in the tournament before that it was not what was expected after their
01:16triumph in 2019 and they're already in and Algeria could open the scoring in the early stage as well
01:22a little back heel here's Mahrez to open it up and he does so
01:26less than 90 seconds on the clock and that was all that was needed for Mahrez to score his seventh goal of the Africa Cup of Nations
01:35a record for his nation and just the start that the North Africans would have wished for
01:42and a nightmare for the Sudanese
01:45well a player of Mahrez's quality is not going to be missing those and they were in behind look at that inside the fullback
01:55and in the blink of an eye
01:59in Algeria we're in nicely worked the back heel from Hisham Boudaoui
02:04and Riyad Mahrez taking his time
02:10a cool finish into the bottom corner
