Bahrain Vs Algeria Live Score, FIFA Arab Cup 2025: Fennec Foxes Eyeing First Win Against Reds To Stay Alive

Abdulla Al-Khulasi fired Bahrain ahead in the 8th minute, but the celebrations were cut short following a lengthy VAR review, which claims the goal is disallowed for offside. The score remains 0-0. Both teams will now redouble their efforts to break this early deadlock.

It's for the action to begin between Bahrain and Algeria in this important Group D clash at the Khalifa International stadium in Doha. We are expecting a highly intense game as both teams aim to grab all 3 points today.

Starting XI: Chaal (GK), Attal, Baouche, Abada, Bedrane, Lekhal, Bendebka, Benzia, Boulbina, Sayoud (C), Berkane

Substitutes: Yesli, Hadid, Khacef, Tougai, Draoui, Brahimi, Halaimia, Slimani, Guitane, Benchaa

Minnows Bahrain were taken down 2-1 by a strong and mighty Iraqi team. An early 10th minute goal from Aymen Hussein was complimented by Mohanad Ali's effort a few minutes later. Bahrain's Sayed Hashim came on as a substitute turned in a decent effort from a great cross inside by Abdulla Al Khalsai.

Algeria had played out a frustrating 0-0 draw against a rather weaker side Sudan 3 days ago. The Fennec Foxes, who are one of the strongest teams in the tournament, were locked down completely by the Sudanese defenders.

Algeria also had their striker Adam Ounas sent off for a second bookable foul right before half-time.
