The Confederation of African Football CAF has handed down sanctions to Algeria over a series of incidents that followed their quarter-final clash with Nigeria at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
CAF's disciplinary board announced a combination of sporting and financial penalties against the Algerian Football Federation FAF, citing misconduct by players, officials and supporters during and after the encounter with the Super Eagles.
As part of the ruling, goalkeeper Luca Zidane has been suspended for two matches, a ban he will serve during the AFCON 2027 qualifying campaign.
