first of hardluck, it was a good game from your side since you needed only to lose by 1 goal to qualify thats why you played with 8 and some times 9 Players as defenders, i don't see thats a bad , you needed to qualify thats why you were doing this, but if you are an outclass team as u've mentioned to would better to attack, you are depending on counter attacks which didn't happen except one time and Saifi missed it.
Sir, you have said "to score an OFFSIDE goal in the 51st minute is just too criminal."
what bout having a penelty kick in the 97th min which was a clear dive."Algeria - Rwanda (3-1)" although you did scored a clear goal and it wasn't counted. but at the end you are playing the playoff match infavour of the 97th min dive against Rwanda, so don't blame the refs, because the same Ref denied Amr Zaki from scoring a second goal at the 8th min when he was completely alone to beat Kowawi and the assistent refree declared an offside which was not an offside.
at the end losing a game is not a big deal, we are brothers congrats from now if you won the rematch and harluck if you lost it.
my Regards
