Group J Match Schedule

Viewing from Algeria

For fans in Algiers and across Algeria (Central European Time, UTC+1), every group stage kickoff falls in the dead of night or predawn hours. Algeria’s 1982 upset of West Germany remains one of the greatest shocks in World Cup history. The current generation carries that heritage into Group J alongside defending champions Argentina, Austria, and Jordan. Fans in Algiers, Oran, and Constantine will be setting alarms and gathering in cafes for these early morning broadcasts, carrying the weight of a nation’s football hopes through the North American night.
