The most painful World Cup ticket flight: Mahrez touched the ticket 118 minutes, it took 120 + 4 minutes

Algeria’s World Cup ticket loss is perhaps the most tragic in the 2022 qualifiers.

The progress of the match Algeria – Cameroon

One of the matches to decide the ticket World Cup 2022 in the Africa region was the match Algeria – Cameroon and in the first leg Algeria won 1-0 away thanks to the goal of Islam Slimani. Because the away goals rule still applies, Algeria has the advantage, but Cameroon still has the second leg.

And in the 22nd minute of the match, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting quickly scored for Cameroon to equalize the total score 1-1 after the mistake of goalkeeper Rais M’Bolhi on the Algerian side. There were no more goals scored for the remainder of the first two innings, and continued into the first extra time with neither side advancing.

Drama came in the 118th minute, Ahmed Touba bounced off a header from a corner to give Algeria a 2-1 lead in the joy of the home fans. However, the second extra time had up to 4 minutes of injury time stemming from a lot of foul situations on both sides and the home team’s time-buying phases. Cameroon had just one more chance from a throw-in to score.

But miraculously the visitors’ cross turned into a close-range opportunity for Karl Toko Ekambi, who became the hero of the match with a well-timed strike. 2-1 for Cameroon, 2-2 is the total score of 2 matches, and Cameroon won tickets to Qatar after being absent from Russia 2018, while Slimani, Riyad Mahrez and Bennacer continued to miss the appointment with Algeria. World Cup 2nd period in a row.
