Royal Army Returns with a Point from Algeria and Delays Continental Decision
The Royal Army team returned with a goalless draw from the field of its host, the Algerian JS Kabylie, in the match that brought them together on Saturday evening, as part of the third round of the group stage of the African Champions League.
The military team was close to achieving a better result, having had genuine scoring opportunities. However, the lack of focus and offensive effectiveness prevented them from converting these chances into goals, leaving them with just one point away from home.
During the second half, the Royal Army intensified its pressure on the home team's defense in search of a winning goal, successfully imposing its rhythm at various intervals of the match. However, the final touch was missing at crucial moments.
With this result, the Royal Army raised its tally to two points, securing third place in its group standings, ahead of JS Kabylie, which holds the same points but is in fourth place due to goal difference.
Al Ahly of Egypt continues to lead the group with seven points, followed by Young Africans in second place with four points. The competition for the two qualification spots remains open in the upcoming rounds, given the close levels and balanced results.
