Belmadi, “You need to know how to develop strategically”

After his team’s victory over Mali (1-0), national team coach Jamel Belmadi spoke at a press conference. He was very satisfied with the big opposition he faced this evening.

The match between Algeria and Mali was declared difficult for the Phoenix, and it was the toughest opposition the Jazmel Belmadi men faced. If they were finally successful thanks to a goal scored by Riyad Mahrez in the 57th minute, the Greens would have been very upset and jossed by young Malians who were very interested in the content.

After the meeting, the national team coach expressed his satisfaction: ” This is a team with great potential, no surprise. I imagine there are a lot of these players who are part of the youth wing in Mali. I am satisfied with the opposition today. This team would suffer if they were working this way.»

Further discussing his team’s strategic plan, Jazmeel Belmadi highlighted the flexibility he already admired after the match against Mauritania: “ You need to know how to develop strategically. Today we did it half the time. We had to change things, we had to be flexible depending on the problem we were facing. »

Belmadi: “We have changed our strategic system, we have had more impact. Slimani has expanded his playing range this year. He took frequent breaks and kept that beating mentality. We corrected the shooting compared to the first MT. ” #TeamDZ #ALGMLI

“It is satisfying to meet such an adversary.”

The evening, which featured midfielder Adeline Gudiora, Ramiz Zerroki and Hicham Boudoui, was the center of criticism. Overcoming the rhythm imposed by the Malians, the trident was cut from the boudou, Islam was released at half-time for the benefit of the slimy and double pivot. For Belmadi, the main culprit for this change is the opponent: “The opponent’s pressure is very strong. It’s hard to turn around Rameez and Boudoui. We had to go between 2 to make more impact and find a more direct game.“Appreciating Jerrock despite his toughest first half:” Zerroki, like Mali, put a lot of pressure on the opposition, in the middle. In the second half, he was especially comfortable with strategic change. I will not be surprised to see his good play. ”

The coach admitted it, it was very difficult to confirm what he expected while confirming this friendly match. “ We find these difficulties they are facing us. Not wanting to humiliate Burkina Faso, Maliki has a good quality of ball possession, but the match against Burkina Faso also has tough opposition. »

Belmadi: “I am satisfied that 26 games have been consistent. Every match‌ has its work, its preparation and the truth but I appreciate this consistency. As long as we keep this state, great things await us inch by inch Allah. “

However, if he praised his players, Jamel Belmadi would admit it: Sofian Feghouli and Ismail Benneser lost their team badly tonight: “ Mali has been very influential, it has definitely worked and been researched. We also see the importance of Feghouli and Benneser in this midfield. However, Mali had only one real chance in the entire match. Our success was not stolen.»

The manager then Youssef Atal, “Slightly injured on Mauritania“, Will be well restored for the match against Tunisia, replaced by Mehdi Zefane, who suffered in the wake of the Malian attacks. For Adam Unus taken on a stretcher, it’s again.”Fear more than harmFor this knockout he earned to wear a neck brace.

“Tunisia has a lot of experience”

Now is the time to go to Tunis. Jamel Belmadi knows the Eagles of Carthage well, he admits: “ This Tunisian team knows me and they know we know. This is a very experienced team, with a lot of players who are accustomed to Africa and know how to manage matches.»

Coach, “criticizing the callerMarch match matches without share», Youssef declared his winning intentions before returning to the cases of Bailey and Islam Slimani. “Bellesley has always been the center of this team, yet he is not at 100% of his physical abilities. He stopped the championship very quickly, but there was no surprise.“That’s how the coach moved forward.

For Islam Slimani, this time, it is a strategic analysis in which Jamel Belmadi is engaged: “Slimy is very interesting when it goes down a bit. He does it regularly in clubs and he is good. This is interesting, especially when you are playing with 2 forwards. This can be more complicated when you are playing with a single attacker.»

The coach will return to CD Moussa satisfied with this 26th meeting without losing to his family. Sending the Greens on vacation is now a match against Tunisia (June 11), and the victory will be with a smile at the end.

Belmadi: “I am always looking for success. In the first game, there were “newcomers” who showed me that I could count them. As for the second match, Mali were able to solve the problems we faced. It is a source of satisfaction. “#TeamDZ #ALGMLI
