If Algeria were about to build towards an attack, their efforts are stopped in their tracks following Boulbina’s foul throw. That does just sum up their day!
Boulbina looks to skip inside and get a shot away for Algeria, but his efforts are charged down by the Swiss defence. Ait-Nouri is then penalised as he attempts to win the ball back high up the field. That will suit Switzerland, who won’t be in a rush to resume play.
Up goes the fourth official’s board and we will play a further six minutes at the end of this second half. There’s still time for Algeria – look at Belgium’s late surge against Senegal on Wednesday. However, it seems highly unlikely they will repeat those exploits.
Still, Algeria try to find a way back. Still, they have no joy. Moussa steps inside and whips the ball towards the far post. Kobel pushes it away with Boulbina lurking, but the latter is ruled offside, and the Swiss can relax with a free-kick.
Substitution
Zakaria also makes way to be replaced by Widmer, who shook off a hip concern to make the bench for this game.
Substitution
Yakin makes another couple of changes late on. Ndoye, the scorer of the second goal, is replaced by Aebischer.
