Less than 24 hours after England’s Green had let Clint Dempsey’s shot slip from his grasp in the 1-1 draw in the group’s opening, Chaouchi produced a similar howler.
Slovenia captain and former West Brom midfielder Koren’s 25-yard shot was not particularly venomous but the Algeria goalkeeper allowed it to bounce up off his shoulder and into the net.
Only moments before that the Africans had been reduced to ten men when substitute Abdelkader Ghezzal’s needless handball resulted in a second yellow card.
