2014 WORLD CUP-ALGERIA: BOUDEBOUZ IS NOT AFRAID OF BELGIUM

The Algerian national team finds itself in Group H for the 2014 World Cup, alongside Belgium, South Korea, and Russia. This grouping has sparked optimism among the Fennecs, as it is considered relatively manageable. Many observers agree that the young Algerian squad, under the guidance of coach Vahid Halilhodzic, has the potential to surprise.

Ryad Boudebouz, an Algerian international midfielder, shares this sentiment, expressing confidence in the team’s ability to progress to the Round of 16. Reflecting on past tournaments, he acknowledges that Algeria may have been tentative in previous World Cups, but emphasizes the importance of approaching this one with experience, maturity, and a fearless attitude.

While acknowledging the strength of Belgium, particularly with standout players like Eden Hazard, Boudebouz believes that Algeria should not fear any opponent. He acknowledges the quality of all teams in the group but stresses the need for Algeria to play without inhibition, given the fast-paced nature of the World Cup.
