Algeria has secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the 2019 AFCON after a convincing 3-0 win over Guinea in a match played on July 7, 2019, at the Stade de June 30.

The Desert Foxes, led by star player Riyad Mahrez, dominated the game from the start, with Mahrez scoring a crucial goal in the 24th minute after a beautiful pass from Baghdad Bounedjah.

Algeria's victory was sealed in the second half when Adams Ounas scored a goal after receiving a pass from Youcef Attal, making it 3-0 for the Desert Foxes.

The win marked Algeria's third consecutive group stage victory, and they will now face the winner of the Mali vs Ivory Coast match in the quarterfinals.

Algeria's coach will be looking to build on this momentum and lead his team to the final stages of the tournament.
