- Description
- The Algeria national football team, nicknamed Les Fennecs (The Desert Foxes), represents Algeria in association football and is controlled by the Fédération Algérienne de Football. Algeria\'s home ground is the Stade 5 Juillet 1962 in Algiers and their head coach is Abdelhak Benchikha. Algeria has qualified for three World Cups in 1982, 1986 and 2010. Algeria has also won the Africa Cup of Nations once in 1990, when they hosted the tournament. The traditional rivals of Algeria have been Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt. However, more recently, Egypt has become the main rival after a number of incidents involving the two teams, most recently during the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification, in which Algeria defeated Egypt 1-0 in a tense tiebreaker in Khartoum, Sudan to qualify to the World Cup.
