END OF THE MATCH
Following after this advertisement
It’s over in Harare where Zimbabwe held Algeria in check. Led 0-2 after goals from Delort and Mahrez, the Warriors were able to reverse the trend. The four changes made at the break by coach Zdravko Logarusić had a big impact, as his men largely dominated physically affected Fennecs. It was Dube, another entrant, who equalized in the 82nd minute of a pleasant match despite a more than difficult lawn. Algeria maintains its invincibility, which now stands at 22 games.

Zimbabwe wants revenge

You saw that when we changed the game system in the second half, it worked very well and we were catching up with them ” He therefore installed for this new meeting a scheme with two attackers.
