The purchase of multiple tickets per supporter caused the rapid exhaustion of the 40000 tickets allocated for the game.
Algeria are the bookmakers favourites to win the whole tournament after a series of resolute displays amounted to three 1-0 wins in the group stages.
The team has been inspired in part by former Algeria national team captain – and Charlton Athletic and Glasgow Rangers defender – Madjid Bougherra – whose 70 caps for the Desert Foxes won him thousands of fans.
This clash between the Algeria and Côte D’Ivoire will be a meeting one of North Africa’s finest and the West Africans also keen on making a name for themselves.
Côte D’Ivoire finished third in 2016 in Rwanda while Algeria’s best shot was a fourth place finish from the 2011 edition of the tournament in Sudan.
