England vs. Algeria
Cape Town Stadium is going to come alive at kick off
England is one of seven national teams to have won the FIFA World Cup, which they did in 1966 when they hosted the finals. They defeated West Germany 4–2 in extra time in the final. Since then their best performance at a World Cup was reaching the semifinals in 1990, where they lost to West Germany on penalties.
The Algeria national football team - nicknamed Les Fennecs (The Desert Foxes) - is the national team of Algeria and is controlled by the Fédération Algérienne de Football. Algeria has managed to qualify for two consecutive World Cups, in 1982 and 1986. Algeria also won the Africa Cup of Nations in 1990 when they hosted the tournament. In November 2009, Algeria beat North African rivals Egypt in a World Cup qualification tiebreaker to secure a place at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
