After missing the recent Algerian national team camp due to suspension, Rafik Belghali delivered a solid performance as Torino secured a 2-1 victory against Udinese in the sixth round of Serie A. The right-back played the full 90 minutes, marking his first complete match with his new club. Operating within a five-man defensive setup, Belghali demonstrated defensive discipline, effectively locking down his flank. While he remained reserved in attack, his contribution at the back was key to the team's result. His return to the national team squad in November is highly anticipated, following recent gaps in that position. Belghali is set to feature in five more matches for Torino before the upcoming FIFA international break.
