Algeria World Cup history
Algeria have reached the World Cup five times (1982, 1986, 2010, 2014 and 2026). Their best result came at Brazil 2014, when the Desert Foxes advanced to the knockout stage for the first time and pushed eventual champions Germany to extra time before losing 2-1 in the round of 16. They have never gone beyond the last 16.
What to know for 2026
- Topped CAF qualifying Group G, winning eight of ten matches to seal their first World Cup since 2014.
- Veteran playmaker Riyad Mahrez remains the creative talisman, with Amine Gouiri offering a versatile attacking threat.
- Experienced, technically gifted side aiming to recapture the spirit of their 2014 round-of-16 run.
