FAF president Walid Sadi has revealed another test for the team:

"The national team will play a second friendly after the one against the Netherlands. This time, it will be against a nation that did not qualify for the World Cup. The second match will take place in the United States, in Kansas City."

This announcement confirms the desire to diversify the opposition ahead of the tournament.

Drawn into a tough group alongside Argentina, Austria, and Jordan, Algeria knows it must be ready from the opening whistle. These friendlies are all part of a clear strategy: build momentum and hit top form ahead of the World Cup with genuine ambition.
