ReplyDeleteThey did - in the past (98, 2002, 2006). For World Cup 2010 they just used current ranking without calculations.
DeleteAlgeria currently ranked 22
ReplyDeleteAfter winning the match interval and qualify for the African Cup will enter the list of top 20 team
After winning the Africa Cup 2013 will be among the best 10 teams
After qualification for the World Cup will be among the top 7 teams
And therefore it would be in the level
Algeria will be in the second level by anticipatory
Deletegreat for our lovely country ................. 1 2 3 viva l'Algerie
