The JS Kabylie Chronicle
Player ratings21 Dec 2026
Aimen Mahious scores twice — 9.01
Two goals and a mark of 9.01 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Match21 Dec 2026
JS Kabylie up to position 3
30 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.
Match19 Dec 2026
JS Kabylie see off ES Ben Aknoun
Three points for JS Kabylie, 2‑0 the final word against ES Ben Aknoun in a contest settled by the finer margins.
Squad21 Dec 2026
Words exchanged at JS Kabylie
Mostapha Rezkallah Bott and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Abdennour Iheb Belhocini beats them one at a time
Successful dribbles: 16. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.
Loan watch21 Dec 2026
Islam Eddine Slimane Tichtich counts the days
“I watch every JS Kabylie game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at USM Khenchela runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.
The dugout21 Dec 2026
A satisfied Said Ghoulam
“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑0, Said Ghoulam could afford to be generous.
Squad21 Dec 2026
A row about effort at JS Kabylie
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Koceila Ait Idir was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
The dugout21 Dec 2026
Aimen Lahmeri gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
