Striker Baghdad Bounedjah's goal secures win over Niger
Algeria secured a place at the next Africa Cup of Nations finals with a 1-0 away win over Niger on Monday that ensured a top-two finish in their qualifying group with two games to go.
Nigeria, Congo, Guinea, Sudan and the Central African Republic, who have never previously qualified for the finals, were also winners on Monday. Algeria had to come from behind to beat the same side at home last week — with Riyad Mahrez scoring an 88th-minute winner — and as a result coach Djamel Belmadi made eight changes for Monday’s Group F match, demonstrating the depth at his disposal.
Ghana top Group E after coming from behind to draw in Angola, who were ahead through a 51st penalty from Reading’s Lucas JOsman Bukari equalised about 20 minutes later and Ghana, in their second game under new coach Chris Houghton, hit the woodwork later on as they looked to snatch victory in Luanda.
