This time Faouzi Chaouchi was the man who was guarding Algerian goalpost but fell shy of putting his body behind the ball letting it past his shoulder into the net and rest is now history.
Every one is talking about Green-esque phenomenon in the FIFA World Cup at South Africa and few of the sports pundits have speculated that Green-esque would last for finals of the coveted competition.
Such unlucky team was Algeria that made 10 shots on Slovenian goal, committed 17 fouls, earned 3 corner kicks, received 1 yellow card and a decisive red card for Abdelkader Ghezzal that changed the pace and fate of the game.
Algerian Desert Foxes may respond with one but they were caught under another phenomenon and that was fear of numbers as after Abdelkader Ghezzal, they were playing with ten and were unable to fend off the pressure built in the absence of Abdelkader Ghezzal.
It is often said, you need not be good if you are lucky and so would be feeling Slovenian after their win that has put them at the to of the score table in Group C.
Algerian hero Zinedine Zidane, who is born of Algerian parents in France, is considered a national hero in North America but he too was not impressive enough to ignite some moments of excitement in an otherwise monotonous match.
It seemed Algerians were indifferent of winning or loosing and when you become indifferent then nightmares like Green-esque are but a must.
