02:51now the corner does come in well players down ignored by the referee shot comes in
02:58blocked on the edge of the six yard box great onto a head of a defender
03:03headed back into the danger of Messiani well tackled on the edge of the deep
03:10and the shot comes in from what and the players tunnel
03:14should be followed by the players themselves any moment now
03:21well a fast start from uh ludia club delgier
03:30utterly dominant the first 10-15 minutes or so of that first half were the hosts
03:35in group a of the calf champions league at stake here for the winners a draw will see alhamal
03:41remain top with seven points after three games and in a very strong position
03:46to get through the group stage for the first time in really quite a long time
03:55in the second half that crossfield ball well intersected by kadeem dior
04:07i'll allow desperate to make a better start to this second half the first half they were
04:11completely swamped the first 10-15 minutes will shot from distance again coming in from steven
04:16edward and not the first time he's near the hour mark it just feels like perhaps a goal
04:24is about to happen doesn't it certainly it's a game that needs a goal for champions league
04:31um
04:36oh the shot for distance that did not go far over the crossbar
04:41well it looked optimistic didn't it
04:47oh the shot from the loose ball goes over the top but well the youth was
04:53drawn out it has been drawn still out of position here the tall center back but the
04:59head up just dipping under the bar from drowy but easily
05:07well yet again i'm gonna have the
05:11defensive line actually sitting quite deep here the ball is whipped in and there's the opener
05:17well the defensive line seemed suicidally deep there from the set piece for the algerians and
05:24now halal took advantage at last a good delivery from the set piece
05:32and there was nobody marking him on the edge of the six yard box the defense stopped
05:42free header powered past the goalkeeper and it's kasuma for fana
05:50i've scored the opening goal here and if things stay like this el halal are going to be well
05:55clear at the top of the five points clear with three games to play in group eight what a result
06:01this would be first goal of the competition for the mauritanian midfielder
06:17well stage for the first time well sorry through the group stage for the first time since 2015
06:24oh the sashaying run there shot blocked on the edge of the air now the second shot comes in
06:27straight at the goalkeeper from natchi and the follow-up goes well over from denotes
06:35the algerian players will agree with that though as the set piece comes in not dealt with surely
06:41here well there's a handball inside the six yard box has that been spotted yes it has by the lines
06:46but picked up on the edge of the area
06:54the cross comes in just missed at the near post
07:02what's happened here in round two a match day one was on the bench for the last game in this
07:11game
07:15shot from distance deflects well that might get a lucky corner yes it will
07:21king figure on the sidelines somehow there's only six green shirts in them two
07:27that managed to get unmarked got in each other's way i think more than anything else
07:30to try and get something out of this game certainly in
07:40calf competition you must get points at home it's so hard away no one sold out
07:46hello that though that's a long shot comes that's only just wide of the upright you know
07:54oh good play on the left hand side the ball whipped in and the header
08:02just over the bar from riyazid he's a
08:05from the edge of the six yard box and come straight back at them though
08:10the law swings the ball in there the keeper comes for the punch doesn't get it very well
08:15grabs it at the second attempt by furfana
08:20here
08:23cain beaten in the air somehow despite being the tallest man on the pitch
08:27then the ball swept across goes out of play and finally there is the final whistle
08:38now halal have taken a famous victory here at the stad de sangria and they go five points
08:49so
