The hopes for North African teams in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers are dwindling after disappointments in recent tournaments. Egypt faces a virtually impossible task of overturning a six-goal deficit against Ghana. Morocco and Tunisia, having been eliminated earlier, left the last hope on Algeria. Algeria faces Burkina Faso, and a win is crucial after losing the first leg 3-2. The Maghreb region, once a stronghold in African football, is now facing the possibility of not being represented in the upcoming World Cup. Vahid Halilhodzic, Algeria’s coach, expresses his determination to qualify, fueled by a sense of injustice from the first leg’s referee decisions. The outcome will be revealed in the upcoming match.
