Algeria’s national football team has resumed training following a 3-0 defeat against Argentina in their opening 2026 World Cup qualifying match. The team is now preparing for a critical game against Jordan on Tuesday, June 23rd. Goalkeeper Luca Zidane, making his World Cup debut in the previous match, faced criticism for his performance. The Algeria-Jordan match is considered decisive for their qualification hopes within Group J. The game is scheduled for a 4:00 AM local Algerian time kickoff. This match presents an opportunity for Algeria to rebound and improve their standing in the qualifying tournament. Zidane’s position as starting goalkeeper may be under scrutiny following the loss to Argentina.
