ALGERIA NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM

The Algeria national football team — governed by the Algerian Football Federation (FAF) — represents Algeria in men’s international football.

The team plays its home matches at several major stadiums: primarily the 5 July 1962 Stadium in Algiers, and more recently the Miloud Hadefi Stadium in Oran.

• 5 July 1962 Stadium was inaugurated in 1972 as part of a national Olympic complex, commemorating Algeria’s independence.

• Miloud Hadefi Stadium, opened in 2021, is a modern venue with a capacity of about 40,000.

Over the decades, the team has also used other venues — especially when renovations or capacity constraints required alternate home grounds.
