Algeria midfielder Yacine Brahimi insists that the side will "do everything to win" their final Group H match against Russia at the World Cup.

Yacine Brahimi has insisted that Algeria will "do everything to win" their final Group H match against Russia at the World Cup later today.

The side currently sit second in the table with one win and one defeat, and could guarantee a place in the last 16 if they beat the Russians this evening.

The midfielder told FIFA.com: "Of course we will try to win. A point does not guarantee us a place [in the round of 16].

"Besides, playing for a draw is not part of our principles. We will do everything to win the match, to put in a second good performance.

"We are really proud but let's not get over-enthusiastic. We won a match but to reach the round of 16, we will need a second good performance because it will be really hard."

A draw could be enough for Algeria to go through, but they would have to rely on the result in the other match in their group as well as goal difference.
