Algeria Football– Yesterday’s match between CR Belouizdad (CRB) and Al Ahly, played as part of the CAF Champions League, was marked by a rare moment of emotion. Islam Slimani, star striker of CRB, stood out, not only by his play, but by a gesture of great brotherhood towards two former teammates, Achraf Dari and Ramy Rabia, now defenders of Al Ahly.
After the final whistle, Slimani was seen joining Moroccan international Dari and Egyptian defender Rabia. The three players, who shared the Sporting Lisbon locker room during their respective stints with the Portuguese club, exchanged warm hugs in midfield. This simple but deeply touching gesture was praised by supporters of both teams and quickly made the rounds on social media.
This scene was a reminder of the importance of human connections in a sport often dominated by rivalries and competition. Slimani, known for his combativeness on the pitch, demonstrated once again that he is also a man of values, capable of transcending sporting boundaries to honor friendships built over the years.
The supporters present at the July 5 stadium particularly applauded this initiative, which breathed a sense of solidarity and unity. Several Internet users also praised Slimani’s attitude, some calling him a “true ambassador of the beautiful values of football”.
This gesture reminds us that football is above all a story of passion, respect and lasting friendships. Islam Slimani, by mixing emotion and sportsmanship, not only won points with the supporters, but also sent a strong message: brotherhood goes beyond the colors of the jerseys.
