マンチェスター・シティ2026ワールドカップウォッチ：ラヤン・アイト＝ヌーリとアルジェリアが劇的な逆転勝利でヨルダンを下す
ラヤン・アイト・ヌーリ率いるアルジェリアは、カリフォルニア州サンタクララのリーバイス・スタジアムで行われたグループJの試合で、ワールドカップ初出場のヨルダンを2-1で破り、劇的な後半の逆転劇を演じ、決勝トーナメント進出への望みをつないだ。
Rayan Ait-Nouri and Algeria produced a dramatic second-half comeback to beat World Cup debutants Jordan 2-1 in Group J at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, keeping their knockout stage ambitions firmly alive.
Jordan made a bright start and took a deserved lead in the 36th minute when Nizar Al Rashdan struck an eye-catching first-time finish past Algerian goalkeeper Luca Zidane – son of the legendary Zinedine – to give the Chivalrous Ones their first-ever lead in a World Cup match.
Algeria, despite dominating possession, looked toothless for much of the first half, with captain Riyad Mahrez spurning a couple of good chances, and the Desert Warriors headed into the dressing room trailing.

Djamel Belmadi‘s side emerged with far greater urgency after the break, and the turnaround began in the 69th minute when half-time substitute Nadhir Benbouali rose to head home from a Mahrez corner.
Algeria continued to press a tiring Jordan side and eventually snatched the winner in the 82nd minute, when Amine Gouiri prodded the ball home from close range following another corner, a goal that survived a VAR check for offside.
The victory was Algeria’s first at a World Cup since 2014, moving them level on points with Austria ahead of a potentially decisive Group J showdown between the two sides.
Jordan, meanwhile, are eliminated with a game to spare, though they can take pride in two spirited performances on the biggest stage in their debut tournament.
