49'

SAVE: Pape Souare of Lille takes the free-kick 30 yards from goal on the left-hand side of the area, but M'Bolhi is able to save the low shot easily.

48'

Medjani jumps over the top of Diouf as they compete for the ball, and Senegal have a free-kick 30 yards out.

47'

Kara and Soudani clash down the Senegal left - the Dinamo Zagreb forward's fall to the ground was all a bit 'Swan Lake'.

46'

We are waiting for the second half to kick off at the same time as the other match between South Africa and Ghana. And we are off. Algeria kick off from left to right.

45+2'

Half-time, and it is Senegal 0-1 Algeria, thanks to Leicester City's Riyad Mahrez's 11th minute goal. As it stands, Algeria will go through as Group C winners.

45+1'

Two minutes of additional play - Algeria go to sleep at the free-kick, but the defence recover and Senegal have a corner.

45'

Medjani does really well to nick the ball away from Diouf as the Stoke player bears down on goal. M'Bolhi then awkwardly makes a block from a Gueye effort from 25 yards.

44'

Souare makes some space down the left but Mandi concedes the throw. Some good moments of pressure from Senegal.

43'

Brahimi tries a half-cross, half-shot, and makes a total mess of it, as the ball sails four yards over Coundoul's crossbar.

42'

Sane comes across Soudani down the right channel and connects with the arm, but the referee only judges that a free-kick and not a yellow card as well.

41'

Badji gets a yellow card for a late tackle on Ghoulam. No complaints from the Senegal bench for that one.

40'

Diouf runs onto a brilliant ball down the right channel from Sane, but Bougherra is again across to block any danger.

39'

A scare for Algeria but M'Bolhi again clears with his feet from Mane. Algeria counter through Mahrez but his cross from the left fails to beat the first man.

38'

Gueye is cynically bought down by Mahrez. Another chance for Senegal to swing the ball into the Algeria box, but Diop's free-kick is again poor and cleared.

37'

M'Bolhi is out quickly to come from his box to clear from Diouf.

36'

Djilobodji easily clears the Algeria free-kick towards M'Bolhi's near post.

35'

Brahimi is pulled down on the right touchline by Gueye. This is some cynical stuff by Giresse's side.

34'

Diop's free-kick aimed at Kara is overhit and Algeria have the goalkick. That was a waste from the Senegal midfielder.

33'

Bentaleb concedes a foul on Mane 30 yards from goal. The Tottenham player looks unhappy with the referee's decision.

32'

Taider loses the ball in midfield but Badji is unable to make any headway down the right for Senegal.

31'

Djilobodji's sidefooted left-foot effort drifts just wide of the Algeria goal.
