World Cup 2018 & 2022 Hosts: 10 Best Replacements

8. Algeria

It took eighty years for Africa to host a World Cup tournament, and there'll certainly be a far shorter wait before the second occurrence. Unfortunately, South Africa 2010 was criticised for a slew of boring games (as well as the ever-present vuvuzela soundtrack accompanying each match), but a handful of African nations would be capable of putting on a superior show. Chief among these is perhaps Algeria, home of five 50,000 seat stadiums and six numbering 40,000 or above, as well as one of the biggest surprise packages at last summer's tournament. Ideal Final Venue: Stade 5 Juillet 1962, Algiers - named after the date Algeria declared independence from France.
