Rabah Saadan: We are ready to face the pharaohs; the match against Zambia is harder
Coach of the Algerian squad
Coach of the Algerian football squad Rabah Saadan confirmed that the match against Zambia in Tchilallambi stadium is much more difficult than the one against the Pharaohs in Blida stadium.
-
He sent a message to both Algerians and Egyptians that football is just a game giving the example of the last El Clasiko between Real Madrid and Barça.

-
-We started the technical preparations and we’ll enter the last stage of the qualifications on June 16.

-
-I can’t speak about the list of the players who will participate in the training course which will precede the match against Egypt; however, we prepared a list of 35 players which will be announced Tuesday to avoid any mistakes.

-
-
-I’m the first responsible for the Algerian squad and there is no major player. I confirm the best ones will move with us to France.

*We are watching a lot of players and we have a list of all the Algerian players inside and outside Algeria. Boudebouz is free, I confirmed many times that I will never use players who would play for squads other than the Algerian one, because loving his nation is very important.

-
-I can’t say anything about our working program but it will pass two phases since the payers will join us in the second week.
-
-
-
-
-The Egyptian squad will move to Blida stadium to win. It will do anything to realise that because its defeat in Algeria means it will lose lot of chances for the World Cup qualifications, but we have the necessary plan to win.

-
-No I’m not, I’m afraid from the circumstances and conditions in Tchilallambi stadium which is called the stadium of death because of the bad conditions there.

-We trust officials of the Algerian Football Federation and we know they are able to protect us, but we only ask for a fair arbitration.
