Algeria 1 Zambia 0

Algeria managed to cement their control on our World Cup Qualification Group with a hard fought 1-0 home victory to Zambia. It could have been a different story though if a Zambia goal early in the second half was not incorrectly disallowed for offside. Algeria now top the group with 10 points, 3 clear of second placed Egypt with two games to go. I'm sad to say but the odds are stacked against Egypt qualifying.
