AFCON 2019: Algerian coach blasts Nigerian journalist ahead of semi-final

The antics of North African footballers, have been one of the talking points in the build-up to clash.

In a video that has gone viral on social media, Algerian star Ramy Bensebaini was seen slapping himself in the face with Wilfried Zaha’s hand, before falling to the floor clutching his head, during the quarterfinal tie between Algeria and Ivory Coast on Thursday. At Saturday’s pre-match press conference, Mbonu-Ezeoke described the behavior of Bensebaini as “terrible”, a remark that did not go down well with Belmadi.

When asked if that behavior was acceptable and whether he had spoken to the player about it, the Algeria manager replied: “I am not really sure that this is the place to talk about this.“There is a referee for that, there is VAR for that, it is not your job to talk about these things.”
