MC Alger in African football

The first match was against Al-Ahly Benghazi in the African Cup of Champions Clubs, where they were defeated 3–2 and the first goal was scored by Abdelkader Aït Hamouda.

[1] On March 6, 2021, MC Alger won in Thiès against Teungueth, putting an end to four decades of drought outside their lands, as the last away success in African competition dates back to 1979.

MC Alger's adventure at the 12th edition of the African Cup of Champions Clubs began in Benghazi with a narrow 3–2 defeat and a laborious 3–1 victory at Stade du 5 Juillet on May 13, 1976.

On December 18, 1976, at Stade du 5 Juillet in the presence of the President of the Republic Houari Boumediene, the dream finally became a reality and the MCA achieved a resounding feat by overcoming the tough Guineans with a score of 3–0 and 4–1 on penalties.

[7] CAF does not stop there since it informs FIFA of the sanctions imposed on Abdouni and Bouacida with the prospect of possibly extending them to the international and national level.

And to drive the point home, the president of the football section Khaled Adnane is suspended for six months for having returned to the playing area, despite his expulsion, to threaten the referee and make insulting remarks towards him.
