Algeria head coach Farid Benstiti says the quarter-final clash against Ghana could go either way, as his side aims to reach the semi-finals for the first time in their history at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations.

The North Africans will take on the Black Queens on Saturday, July 19, at the Stade de Berkane.

Algeria finished as runners-up in Group B, with Nigeria topping the group.

"Football at the quarter-finals is 50/50," Benstiti said at the pre-match conference.

"It is not a problem for us [winning one game]. We want to be more efficient against Ghana. That is our problem to resolve.

"We hope to continue to play offensively and we will try to be more efficient. I hope that it will be a very great game."

Algeria have had a jerky run in the continental showpiece, winning once and playing out two goalless stalemates.

Meanwhile, the Queens are also eyeing a semi-final berth for the first time since 2016.
