Benfica target shines again, scores Ronaldo-style goal (Video) | OneFootball

Mohamed Amoura scored a goal and made an assist in Algeria's 3-1 victory over Botswana. In a match counting for the seventh round of the 2026 World Cup qualifying phase, the player who was on Benfica's radar in the last transfer window showed an excellent level.

At 33 minutes, after a cross from Ramy Bensebaini, Mohamed Amoura rose to the fifth floor, just like Cristiano Ronaldo, and headed the ball into the back of the net, opening the scoring. Still in the first half, Mothusi Johnson from Botswana equalized the match.

In the second half, Mohamed Amoura was once again in the spotlight. At 71 minutes, the target of Benfica in the last transfer market - he even had a trip 'booked' to Lisbon - assisted Baghdad Bounedjah, who put Algeria back in the lead (2-1). In injury time, at 90+6', the same player sealed the score at 3-1.

With this victory, Mohamed Amoura and Algeria take a very important step towards qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. With six wins in seven matches – only losing to Guinea Conakry – Vladimir Petkovic's team remains in first place alone.

In 2024/25, wearing the Wolfsburg jersey, Mohamed Amoura - currently valued at 32 million euros - played a total of 34 matches. In total, during the 2,729 minutes he was on the pitch, the 25-year-old Algerian international scored 10 goals and made nine assists.
