Algeria dominated Guatemala 7-0 in a friendly international on 27 March, delivering a clinical performance that far exceeded the underlying metrics. The hosts generated 29 shots with 11 finding the target, accumulating 6.78 expected goals, while Guatemala managed just five attempts—three on target—from a meagre 0.45 xG. Both sides deployed identical 4-2-3-1 formations, yet Algeria's superior execution in the final third proved decisive. Guatemala's goalkeeper produced a perfect save percentage, registering 100 per cent, though the defensive structure collapsed repeatedly as the Algerian attack overwhelmed the visitors. The seven-goal margin represents a comprehensive mismatch in quality and intensity, with Algeria converting chances at a rate substantially above their expected output. This emphatic victory underlines Algeria's attacking potency in preparation for competitive fixtures ahead.
