These angry fans above all demanded the resignation of coach Djamel Belmadi by chanting “Belmadi, get out”. Walid Sadi, president of the Algerian Federation, went to meet them. But it was the arrival of the players and staff that sparked the ire of those present. One of the supporters was forcefully ejected by the military while another managed to briefly rush into the hotel grounds before being thrown out in a noxious climate.
