Algeria’s midfielder Haris Belkebla: I disappointed my family

Haris Belkebla says he has disappointed his family and millions of supporters after he was dropped from Algeria’s Africa Cup of Nations squad.

The Brest midfielder was expelled from the team’s training ground in Doha, Qatar after he appeared in a live video on streaming platform Twitch, showing his rump.

Coach Djamel Belmadi has since handed a call-up to Montpellier forward Andy Delort as his replacement in the squad.
