The Algerian FA (FAF) have decided to cancel the 2019-2020 season after a five-month suspension and as a result CR Belouizdad have been crowned champions.

Like most countries, Algeria was forced to suspend its football activities since mid-March due to the coronavirus outbreak.

As the situation continues to aggravate in the country, with the number of cases not showing any signs of slowing down and in parallel with the government’s decision to extend the quarantine period, the FAF have decided to cancel the season.

This decision meant that CR Belouizdad have been crowned champions for the seventh time since the club’s inception in 1962 and for the first time since the 2000-2001 season.

Additionally, Algeria’s football governing body decided to cancel relegation form the Algerian Ligue 1.

However, Ligue 2 champions Olympique Médéa will be promoted to the top flight accompanied by JSM Skikda, WA Tlemcen and RC Relizane.
