After the draw snatched by Algeria against Burkina Faso (2-2), Saturday at the African Cup of Nations, Riyad Mahrez, the captain of the Greens, spoke of the progress of his team and the criticisms of observers.
Contested star player of the Algerian national team, Riyad Mahrez came to speak to the microphone of beIN Sports after the draw against Burkina Faso (2-2), Saturday afternoon in Ivory Coast, thanks to a goal scored by Baghdad Bounedjah in the 95th minute of the game. The 2019 African champions led by Djamel Belmadi have two points in two matches in this African Cup of Nations and will face Mauritania in three days to qualify for the round of 16.
“We showed values, we were valiant, we were solid. I think we’re on the right path, we don’t listen to what he says, to all the people who try to talk and believe that we have to win every match 3-0. Let them stay behind their phone and their computer, we don’t listen to them at all, we concentrate on the field, we know that we are going to do it alone, no one is going to help us.”launched the Algerian captain.
“They come in twos, threes on me”
The 2016 African Ballon d’Or was then asked about his somewhat disappointing individual performances and replied: “I’m more watched, it’s hard to find me. On the left, it’s often more open, because there are two or three of them coming at me. But I try to move, to fake things, it will settle down, I don’t worry, I worked a lot to get back in shape, I don’t worry ».
