    The party in Algiers is bigger than when they got their independence.

    That's what happens when they don't have to play a side led by Landon Donovan....

    Now Cameroon is going through on away goals for sure.

    All the time wasting from Algeria strikes them!

    It took a team full of Top 5 league players to do what Landon was doing by himself. :p

    How long has it been since there's been a WC without Nigeria? The 80s?

    They actually didn't make it 06, which surprised me when I looked it up earlier. I could have sworn I've never seen a World Cup without them

    Not the best of days for North Africa.

    Not the worst either, but painful way for Egypt and Algeria to go out.

    You've got to feel for ANY team that goes out, that close to getting the ticket.

    Wow, the announces said earlier in the extra time period that away goals didn't count in extra time and even said we're headed for penalties.

    I didn't even realize that was a winner

    Man. African WC qualifying is cruel.

    Probably the Conference that most deservedly benefits from the expansion to 48 teams in the next WC.

    Two teams through on away goals, one on penalties. Unfair margins with the stakes so high.

    Wild drama, but an awful format.

    Better for the U.S. The result leads to a weaker World Cup pool. I think Algeria is a stronger side then Cameroon.

    Good vibes for Onana, the Cameroon GK - remember he was the Ajax keeper that conceded in the last minute against Tottenham in the Champions League semis.

    Well you'd think a professional commentator being paid to do such a high profile global match would take 20 seconds to google the regulations for the World Cup.

    But we may still get a group that has Spain, Senegal, and Argentina?

    Just think of Egypt failing to qualify in 2014 because of a single match that they failed to win. One single match that wasn't a win in their entire qualifying campaign (in which they were shredded, it must be said).
