Mahrez, whose goal against Senegal was linked to the African Championship, with the words of Algerian commentator Hafeez Draghi, "Put it in the joules, Riyad, put it in the joules," hit the ball very skillfully to enter the opponent's goalkeeper's net.

A goal in the way of a special Arab magician 👌
