Infos :

Agile and technical left winger or attacking midfielder, Rabah GAMOUH said in an interview that it seemed logical to him to be retained in the final team because of his active participation in the qualification phase, illustrated in particular by a decisive goal against Sudan. In the end, only Salah ASSAD was choosen, when GAMOUH could have been a useful substitute for ASSAD who was running out in defensive folds on this left side.

Ahmed AÏT EL HOCINE was considered at the time to be one of the best Algerian centre-forwards, a pioneer of Zamorano's style of play. He participated in the qualification phase and is quoted in a French television report on the preparation of the Algerian team https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQcMFuOTv_s 3'26"). he was not finally chosen in a team that included a lot of attacking midfielders, without a real specialist in the position of center forward

Considered as one of the best Algerian central midfielders, devoted and combative, Mohammed KACI-SAÏD, participated in numerous qualification matches and was in the Panini Album devoted to Espana 82. Curiously, he was dismissed in favor of players with a more offensive profile like MAROC or TLEMÇANI. He had to wait for the 1986 World Cup to show his qualities in a match against Brazil.

The bet of the Algerian coaches to give defensive tasks to attacking midfielders had worked against West Germany, but, by not by not changing these players who were tired, proved to be a bad choice against the Austrian and Chilean attackers. Bouzid MAHIOUZ, who played almost every qualification match and appeared also on the Panini album, was unfairly dismissed when he could bring this defensive quality as a stopper or anchor man.

Experimented sweeper, leader and captain of the french club "Fc Sochaux", Abdel DJAADAOUI was also in the Panini Album and in the last group just before competition. As MAHIOUZ, he could be an useful alternative for the defence.

Abdallah MEDJADI LIEGEON was part of the group doing the last preparation in France before the competition. He had the bad idea, with KOURICHI, to go out one night in a nightclub. Both players were kicked out of the group by the coaches. The disappointing performance of Abdelkader HORR in the last preparation matches against French clubs allowed KOURICHI to plead his case and rejoin the group. His teammate MEDJADI had already left and was not recalled.
