Thirteen minutes of rebellion, from 69 to 82, and 2 corner kicks brought the team of Algeria this Monday with a 1-2 comeback against Jordan at the close of the second day of Group J, which has Argentina in the next phase with 6 points and Austria on the waiting list with 3.

The pupils of Bosnian coach Vladimir Petkovic put in football, physical effort, pyrotechnics, but Jordan needed one blink from their rivals to tip the balance in the 36th minute with a goal from the midfielder. Nizar Al-Rashdan.
The game at Levi’s Stadium, in the American city of Santa Clara, then entered a stage of nervousness.
The Knights showed they were comfortable in the chaos they caused with Al-Rashdan’s goal while Algeria I was looking for the initial script in no order.
The suffering lasted until the second half and the Algerians then understood that they had to do without elaborate plays or look for the formula of the set piece to violate Jordan.
This is how the comeback came.
The last day will be played on June 27. Algeria will clash with Austria and Jordan with Argentina. EFE
