Well, this is bad. After the loss to the USMNT, one of the Algerian players, Rafik Saifi, slapped a female reporter who apparently didn’t even ask him a question.
From the Yahoo! story: “I said nothing to him and he reached over and hit me,” Halimi said. “So I hit him back. I said nothing to him first.”
“She was standing there and the guy came here and he hit her,” said Francisco Aguilar Chang, a reporter from Guatemala who witnessed the incident. “Then she hit him back and her nail caught his lip.”
You stay classy, Algerians.


Is that what is known as a “preemptive strike”?
So we have 6 teams eliminated from the WC so far, and 2 have been post game ass clowns.
Algeria – slapping a female reporter
France – Ray-Ray refusing to shake hands
Won’t anyone think of the CHILDREN!?!
Both speak french
Both were or are currently part of France. Coincidence? Probably.
Lawrence Taylor thinks Saifi’s approach is too tame.
too soon
Ribery doesn’t understand why anyone would slap a grown woman.
Dammit, all my LT and Ribery jokes are already taken.
So LT, Ribery, and Mark Chmura are sitting in a hot tub……
ribery, ribery, ribery..
So she didn’t say anything and got slapped, and Jeremy Schapp still roams unmolested? There is no God.
He just apllied Sharia LAW.in the wrong country
After all she got lucky, worst things could happen to you
for being out of your BURKA
It’s a GOOD thing you capitalized SOME of those WORDS.
Hey, I’ll have you know that Mark Chmura was acquitted!
HEY…. that’s what muslims do. They slap women when they lose .. which is why they slap their women all the time.
ahaa, all youu racist c*nts are dry, sorry. unfortunately england are going out soon . . . d*cks :)
All what you saw was the slap? How about player #17 of the US? how many times his feet were stepped on during the game by aggressive algerians? Algerians are aggressive and arrogant. Their Coach does not train them how to play well but how to hit and slap excellent. Review
what they did to Egyptians.
