Algeria suffered a double blow on Sunday when Mehdi Abeid and Essaid Belkalem were ruled out injured from the tournament. Newcastle United midfielder Abeid had been doubtful for the event over the past few weeks after struggling with a toe injury and uncapped Ahmed Kashi was placed on standby as a replacement. Defender Belkalem was also ruled out by Algerias team doctors with a hamstring problem after picking up the injury while playing for his Turkish club Trabzonspor. The tournament begins in Equatorial Guinea on January 17. Algeria compete in Group C at the Nations Cup against Ghana, Senegal and South Africa. Their opening game is on January 19 against South Africa in Mongomo.
