From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad29 Mar 2027

Abdelkadir Salhi stands alone

10 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Match29 Mar 2027

Full time on the season at MC El Bayadh

Position 13 on 27 points. Every season is a story and this is the last line of it, and now the club has three months to decide what the next one is about.

Player ratings29 Mar 2027

Luke Daniels scores twice — 8.97

Two goals and a mark of 8.97 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad29 Mar 2027

Tempers go at MC El Bayadh

Kutlwano Letlhaku was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad29 Mar 2027

A row about effort at MC El Bayadh

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ahmed Daouda was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match27 Mar 2027

MC El Bayadh see off MC Alger

Three points for MC El Bayadh, 2‑1 the final word against MC Alger in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings29 Mar 2027

A masterclass from Abdelillah Barkat

Marked 8.18 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The dugout29 Mar 2027

A satisfied Islam Belmadi

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑1, Islam Belmadi could afford to be generous.

Match9 Jan 2027

9 matches without a win for MC El Bayadh

The run now stands at 9, and the questions being asked around MC El Bayadh are no longer polite ones.

Market11 Jan 2027

Abdellah Meddah asks to leave MC El Bayadh

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings11 Jan 2027

No sign of nerves from Kutlwano Letlhaku at 20 — 8.16

The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Kutlwano Letlhaku did not need any: 8.16, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Abdelkadir Salhi keeps MC El Bayadh in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Kutlwano Letlhaku in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at MC El Bayadh this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad11 Jan 2027

A row about effort at MC El Bayadh

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ahmed Daouda was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

CS Constantine tell MC El Bayadh: Ouadjih Khelfaoui is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match9 Jan 2027

A bad afternoon for MC El Bayadh against JS Saoura

1‑2 to JS Saoura, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout11 Jan 2027

No hiding place for Ammar El Orfi

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Ammar El Orfi, and the manager let it.

Match2 Jan 2027

The wait goes on for MC El Bayadh

8 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Ilyes Yaiche asks to leave MC El Bayadh

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Oussama Fatmi gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Oussama Fatmi has just signed for MC El Bayadh, and for once the answer mattered.

Transfer targets4 Jan 2027

Ziad Moualhi due for a MC El Bayadh medical

Everything agreed with USM Alger, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Tempers go at MC El Bayadh

Kutlwano Letlhaku was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Door shut on Abdeldjalil Ould Ammar

MC El Bayadh asked and JS Saoura said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

The terraces4 Jan 2027

MC El Bayadh supporters have found a favourite in Kutlwano Letlhaku

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 20-year-old it feels ownership of. Kutlwano Letlhaku has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

The dugout4 Jan 2027

Abdelillah Barkat 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.
