The friendly match between Algeria and South Africa witnessed a legendary goal in every sense of the word, whose hero was Yacine Benzia.
The match ended in a positive draw between the two teams, 3-3, in coach Vladimir Petkovic’s second match at the helm of Algeria’s technical leadership.
While the score indicated a 3-2 lead for South Africa, Benzia received the ball in the “Boys” penalty area, then raised it to the top and performed a magical double kick.

The ball went into the net and was Benzia’s second goal at Nelson Mandela Stadium after scoring Algeria’s first goal in the match.
Benzia, 29 years old, is active in the Azerbaijani team Qarabag, and this season he is in a distinguished state by scoring 13 goals and assisting 10 others in 41 matches in all tournaments.
Benzia’s participation against South Africa was only his fourth international appearance, and now the world is talking about the goal that resembles the goals of “Captain Majid.”
