Algeria : Ziani preserved

Upon their arrival in Benguela last Tuesday, The Desert Foxes trained in Lobito Stadium. Suffering from a slight pulled muscle, the VfL Wolfsburg player, midfielder Karim Ziani, was exempt from training, just to be on the safe side. His medical results came back clear, so the former Marseille player should take part in the CAN Orange 2010 semifinal against Egypt next Thursday. The rest of the team, including goalkeeper Faouzi Chaouchi, trained as usual.
