6 January 2026
Amoura Leads Algeria Toward a Quarterfinal Triumph
Mohamed Amoura, Algeria's star, raised the banner of defiance after a hard-fought 1-0 win over DR Congo in AFCON 2025 Round of 16, signaling that the team will keep striving to delight Algerian fans in the rounds ahead.
After the match, Amoura said this win was not easy and dedicated it to the Algerian fans who supported them throughout the game and stood by them at every moment.
He added: God willing, we will make the Algerian people happy in the upcoming rounds; every match will be tough no matter the opponent, and we will perform our duty on the pitch with seriousness and focus to ensure we stay in the competition.
Amoura stressed that the Algerian team will spare no effort to preserve their positive results, noting that fan support was a decisive factor in the victory, and that the players feel a strong responsibility to delight the Algerian people in every match.
The winning goal came from substitute Adel Bolbina in the 118th minute, securing Algeria's progression to the quarterfinals where they will face Nigeria in a fiery clash.
If Algeria's finishing were a sniper, the crosshair would never miss the bullseye.
And if confidence were ammo, Amoura just loaded the whole clip—retreat not an option, ever.
