Leicester City players in the AFCON

[Blaarev]

Will Mahrez stay on in Algerie after the AFCON as Algerie's new dictator?

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

Saw this posted on his official Facebook. They love him

 

[Billyjof]

Is he our only player to have ever scored at Afcon?

 

[glyn]

He'll probably be our all time leading international goal scorer by the end of this comp. unless as the Mercury pointed out a brace he scored in a behind closed doors international is given full status, and he's already there.

I DID NOT realise quite how much he was loved in Algeria! Bloody hell!

Ever seen the lcfc Facebook page? Every single post has a million posts of Mahrez, an Algerian flag or something I can't read.

Riyad has opened the scoring for Algeria. 1-0 up against Zimbabwe. Slimani with the assist.

Mahrez has given Algeria the lead against Zimbabwe. The match is supposed to be on Eurosport 2 but there's snooker on at the moment.

2-1 to Zimbabwe now. Half an hour gone.

Mahrez makes it 2-2

Mahrez makes it 2-2

He doesn't want to come home.

Classic Eurosport, they always do this with the biking as well.

A reasonable goal, the second one. https://twitter.com/DonRanieri/status/820689598447751169

Haven't we seen him do that for us as well? Been a while though....

The first goal:

Good goal. Why can't he do that for us anymore?

 

[yackandandah]

Lovely quick feet for the first; create space, thwack, goal. Not quite sure who the Zimbabwe player intended that back pass for though!

Second goal, well. Ok, well taken but I think the 'keeper might be disappointed... as they say.

He doesn't get that much time and space in the Premier League anymore. He's so closely marked these days that this kind of thing will be far less likely this season.
