AFCON 2025: Algeria Gears Up to Take Down Nigeria in Quarter-Final Clash

Algeria’s national team is training intensively ahead of Saturday’s Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final against Nigeria (5:00 PM), working with discipline and mounting confidence.
After dramatically advancing past the round of 16 with a hard-fought extra-time victory over DR Congo on Tuesday (1-0), the Desert Foxes now turn their attention to another formidable opponent as they pursue a third African title.
Training sessions have intensified with a heavy focus on tactics and technique, with the squad showing total concentration, understanding that every detail matters at this stage.
Adil Boulbina and his teammates are gaining momentum throughout the tournament, making their title ambitions clear through strong team chemistry and an exemplary mindset.
Despite some injury concerns, particularly midfielder Ismaël Bennacer’s knock from the DR Congo match, coach Vladimir Petkovic remains calm.
The Bosnian coach is confident in his squad depth and the full commitment of his players to meeting the demands of a challenge on an entirely different level.
