The Greens secured a 3-0 victory in Somalia this Thursday evening and are thus guaranteed to finish at the top of their group. First place, therefore, means qualification for the next World Cup!

Algeria will thus return next summer to the most prestigious football competition, twelve years after their last appearance.

That was in 2014, in Brazil, when the Fennecs reached the round of 16, eliminated 2-1 after extra time by Germany, who went on to become world champions a few days later.

As a reminder, before 2026, Vladimir Petković and his squad will compete this winter in the Africa Cup of Nations, in Morocco.
