Arab and Algerian fans ridiculed the manner in which Algeria’s top scorer, Ayman Mahyous, executed a decisive penalty kick that almost gave his country the victory in the African Nations Cup for the locals, which was finally concluded and crowned by the Senegalese team.
Social networking sites were outraged by the Algerian player’s recklessness in executing the fifth penalty kick when he hit the hands of the Senegalese goalkeeper in a very strange way, so that many fans mastered sarcasm with funny videos, most notably the line-up of more than one player in front of a goalkeeper and they hit four balls at the same time. Mahyous method and the goalkeeper tackled it together!.
The Algerians were hoping to win the championship, but they left the “Nelson Mandela” stadium in the Algerian capital angry after the defeat by penalty shootouts 4-5, after the final match ended in its original and extra time with a goalless draw.

For his part, Mahyous apologized to the fans in a message reported by the Algerian website An-Nahar, in which he said: “In fact, I gave the team my best, but unfortunately we were not lucky in the penalty shootout.”
Mahyous, who won the tournament’s top scorer award in a strange way, added when he considered Senegal more deserving of winning than the Algerian national team, saying: “This is my way of shooting even with the club, but this time luck turned its back on me, and the truth is that the Senegal national team deserves to win!”
The player said #mahyous The criticism he received after the missed penalty does not prevent him from making his shooting method a personal trademark, and one that will be marketed in training centers. This marketing has started in the neighborhoods of Algiers
My opinion: Despite all this, a good path for the national team that showed good potential and reached the final pic.twitter.com/FxjuIbpaQC
