Summary

In the 12th round of Nationale I, The Stade du 5 Juillet witnessed one of the most spectacular performances in the history of Algerian football. On this day, USM Alger demolished ASM Oran with an astonishing 11–0 victory, one of the heaviest scorelines ever recorded in the national championship. Under a grey sky and on a water-logged pitch, USMA imposed their rhythm from the very first minutes. After just four minutes, Djamel Zidane opened the scoring, setting the tone for what would become a completely one sided encounter. USMA’s attack, in great form, overwhelmed a struggling Oranese defense that appeared powerless throughout the match.

Zidane was the undisputed man of the match, scoring five goals (4’, 29’, 57’, 59’, 86’), achieving one of the greatest individual feats of the era. Khelifa Benmessaoud (21’, 83’) and Déraoui (25’, 73’) each scored twice, while Hocine Rabet (15’) and Nacer Guedioura (90’) added the remaining goals. Despite the difficult field conditions, USMA played with fluidity, confidence and total dominance, creating chance after chance. ASMO, considered one of the weakest sides of the season, were unable to offer the slightest resistance. This 11–0 victory stands as a major landmark in the history of both the club and the Algerian league.

USMA’s biggest win on record, one of the largest victories in Algerian football history and a remarkable individual performance by Zidane. Beyond the extraordinary scoreline, this match highlights the offensive strength of USM Alger during that period and remains an essential reference for the club’s historians. This remains the heaviest victory ever recorded at the Stade du 5 Juillet in all competitions since its inauguration.
