Mahrez sjajnim slobodnjakom duboko u nadoknadi odveo Alžir u finale (VIDEO)

Nakon što je Senegal u produžecima svladao Tunis u prvom polufinalu Afričkog kupa nacija, reprezentacija Alžira je u jednako dramatičnoj utakmici pobijedila Nigeriju rezultatom 2-1 i tako osigurala plasman u svoje treće finale.

Poveli su Alžirci autogolom Troost-Ekonga u 40. minuti, da bi Super orlovi potom izjednačili u drugom dijelu pogotkom Ighala iz jedanaesterca (72'). Kada su svi očekivali nove produžetke pojavio se krilni igrač Manchester Citya, Riyad Mahrez.

Nekadašnja zvijezda Leicestera namijestila je loptu na vrh šesnaesterca kako bi izvela slobodan udarac. Nanišanio je ljevicom vratarov kut i bombom rasparao mrežu u petoj minuti nadoknade čime je poslao Alžir u finale.
