Afcon 2019: Boost for Algeria as Yacine Brahimi declared fit to face Guinea

Algeria have received a timely boost as Yacine Brahimi will be available to face Guinea in the Africa Cup of Nations finals match on Sunday.

The attacking midfielder missed Algeria’s previous match owing to a minor knock but Algeria have confirmed his return to face Guinea in the vital Round of 16 match.

“The national team held their final training session for the clash against Guinea and the good news coming from camp is the return of Yacine Brahimi, who has recovered from the injury that forced him to miss the Tanzania tie,” Algeria said on their official website page.
