Algeria was founded on January 1, 1962 and joined FIFA on January 1, 1964. Algeria has qualified for four World Cups in 1982, 1986, 2010, and 2014. Algeria has also won the African Cup of Nations once in 1990, when they hosted the tournament.<BR><BR><STRONG>How they qualified<BR><\/STRONG>After a so-so South Africa 2010 and a poor 2013 CAF Africa Cup of Nations, Algeria missed very few beats on their way to Brazil 2014. They won five of their six group matches to easily top what might have been a tricky section over Mali, Benin and Rwanda. Once in the final play-off round, they were unlucky to draw one of the continents form teams in Burkina Faso, who shocked Africa by finishing second at the 2013 AFCON. In that tie, they lost the first leg 3-2 to a late penalty, but just claimed the place in Brazil with a professional 1-0 win at home that gave them the advantage on away goals.<\/P>","63D5A09C1F729528628C60E02F0396E1":"<P><STRONG>Africa Cup of Nations<BR><\/STRONG>Winners (1): 1990<BR>Runners-up (1): 1980<BR>Third place (2): 1984, 1988<BR><BR><STRONG>All-Africa Games<BR><\/STRONG>Gold Medal (1): 1978<BR><BR><STRONG>Mediterranean Games<BR><\/STRONG>Gold Medal (1): 1975<BR>Silver Medal (1): 1993<BR>Bronze Medal (1): 1979<BR><BR><STRONG>Pan Arab Games<BR><\/STRONG>Bronze Medal (1): 1985<BR><BR><STRONG>Palestine Cup of Nations:<BR><\/STRONG>Third place (2): 1972, 1973<BR><BR><STRONG>Vahdat Cup<\/STRONG> (International Tournament hosted by Iran)<BR>Runner Up (1): 1982<\/P>","4406E48704A97D69D6728A5D009266729A239ADB920A5D02":"1","5FF2086A93BB2EE023D0558B503D08D2":"Croatia,Switzerland","2775A0F6CDE5FA9FEBFF51A9CD3C0BB9":"Bordeaux,Switzerland,Lazio,Samsunspor,Young Boys,Bellinzona,FC Lugano,Malcantone","7E5D3E774B9EC62B":"Blida","5D47EACB4D5E6DAA3CEC66553FE0120E":"90kg","E45C1F715A41C4086A1A5DFF72C29C40":"35,000","411CCFA197052F93":"Algeria","622EB7B4B85B2C76":"<P><STRONG>First international<BR><\/STRONG>Bulgaria 1&#8211;2 Algeria (Sofia, Bulgaria; 6 January 1963)<BR><BR><STRONG>Biggest win<BR><\/STRONG>Algeria 15&#8211;1 South Yemen (Tripoli, Libya; 17 August 1973)<BR><BR><STRONG>Biggest defeat<BR><\/STRONG>East Germany 5&#8211;0 Algeria (Cottbus, Germany; 21 April 1976)<BR><BR><STRONG>Most caps<BR><\/STRONG>Lakhdar Belloumi (101)<BR><BR><STRONG>Top scorer<BR><\/STRONG>Abdelhafid Tasfaout (35)<\/P>","5A3E8B25A329ABB4785C62D37B63DE94":"<P>Vladimir Petkovic (born 15 August 1963) is a Bosnian-Swiss football manager and former professional player who played as a midfielder.
