Zapping World Eleven Winning pass
In less than 24 hours, Algeria will face Cameroon at the Japoma stadium, in the first leg of the 2022 World Cup.
Before this fateful shock, the captain of the Greens, Riyad Mahrez, presented himself in press conference and allowed himself a spade against a Cameroonian journalist, who claimed that the side of the Indomitable Lions, Nouhou Tolo, was going to “extinguish” him.
“I’m used to playing against very big defenders every weekend and we’ll see tomorrow if he’s a great defender,” replied the Manchester City winger, laughing.

Barça on Mahrez?
If Riyad Mahrez is currently focused on the Algerian selection, his future is in the news when he only has 15 months left on his contract with the Citizens. If Paris-Saint-Germain, Chelsea or Real Madrid have previously been announced on the shelves of the native of Sarcelles, Foot Mercato claims that Barca have entered the dance.
Anticipating a possible non-extension of Ousmane Dembélé’s lease in Catalonia, the Blaugranas would have inquired a few weeks ago for Mahrez, even if the track leading to Raphinha (Leeds) remains a priority.
An XXL performance from Riyad Mahrez against Cameroon could perhaps convince Joan Laporta to prioritize this file over that of the Brazilian. More at stake for tomorrow’s match (6 p.m.) in Douala.
🚨 Info: Mahrez 🇩🇿, who has still not extended, is of interest to several clubs:
• #Barcelona found out a few weeks ago. But the current priority is Raphinha 🇧🇷
• Paris has shown an interest
• Before the sale, #Chelsea had manifestedhttps://t.co/hxx48rGOHt
