Mansouri to Echourok: I will not mix in the coach’s decisions

The former Algerian captain Yazid Mansouri has declared that he wished the entry of Djamel Abdoun and Ryad Boudebbouz at the end of the match adding that the Greens were excellent and the match was played on deteails.

•  
• Echoourk: First appearance of the Algeria squad in the World cup and first defeat what do you think?
•  
• Mansouri: Actually we were looking forward to achieving a positive result versus Slovenia but football is not a science and I think that we were better but the Slovenians knew how to exploit the opportunity they created and scored following Chaouchi’s mistake.
•  
• Echoourk: Do you think that the chances to qualify to the second round are reduced to nil?
•  
• Mansouri No, we don’t’ have to judge the Algerian team right after the first match and we have to work for reaching better results in the upcoming matches versus England and the US.
•  
• Echoourk The Greens fell to beat Slovenia and do you think they can do it versus England?
•  
• Mansouri: Everything is possible as England will try to beat us to move to the second round and we will try to catch up our setback and keep are chances alive.
•  
• Echoourk: Some blame Ghezzal for destabilizing the group after his expulsion what do you think?
•  
• Mansouri: I don’t think that he really meant it but that’s the way it is in football and I hope these mistake will not happen again in the future. However, the greens were still playing well even reduced to 10.
•  
• Echoourk: Do you mean that Chaouchi’s mistake was fatal?
•  
• Mansouri: We don’t have to blame him and should be self- critical
