Amazing/Bizarre end to Algeria/Austria game. 11:34 - Jun 28 with 1002 viewsITFCson

Quite a bizarre/dramatic ending to the game. At 2-2 with 5 mins left it was being passed around the back with no pressing from Austria and no scoring intent from Algeria.

Finishing this way ensured Algeria progress and meet Switzerland and Austria play Spain. Had Austria won they also play Spain. If Algeria win they then play Spain.

So with 1 min left on the clock quite amazingly Algeria decide they want to try and score.

Did Algeria really wait 44 years and plan this kind of finish to try and avenge the events of Gijon and send Austria packing, because no other explanation makes sense. Surely they'd rather Switzerland in R32 rather than Spain - which in the end happened due to the late late Austrian Equalizer.
