Until last night Ishak Belfodil had heard nothing from the Algerian national team coach Vahid Halihodzic regarding the return game versus Burkina Faso October 12 that will decide who will get a ticket to the 2014 World Cup.

According to the local sports paper Le Buteur the fact that no letter with a call up has arrived to the player confirms that the Bosnian coach is standing by the principle that was announced some time ago regarding five players. Other than Belfodil there are Rafik Djebbour, Mohamed Amin, Aoudia Islam Slimani and Nabil Ghilas that were informed that only three of them would be called up.

The call up depends on various criteria; with minutes played with the club team is one of them. At the moment it seems that the little space available until now for the player at Inter has penalized him.
