The CR Belouizdad–MC Oran rivalry[1], are the matches between CR Belouizdad (CRB) and MC Oran (MCO) and gives rise to an important confrontation.  The first represents Algiers, the capital of the country, the second Oran, the second largest city in the country.  They are both among the most successful clubs in the country.

They are also the two clubs having played the greatest number of seasons in the Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1, since they have both always been part of this elite, except for one season.  This confrontation is considered a rivalry in Algeria

History

The rivalry between the two clubs began in the first season of the national Division 1 championship, organized after the country's independence in 1962. The first match between Mouloudia Club d'Oran and Chabab Riadhi Belouizdad (formerly Belcourt) took place during the third season, of which it marks the opening.

Sunday, September 13, 1964 thus saw the beginning of this Algerian football rivalry, in front of 25,000 spectators. MCO top CRB with goals from Nehari (35th) and Karim Hmida (41st & 47th) to take them 3-0 up after an hour. CRB wakes up in the final half hour of play to reduce the score on a collective work allowing Arab to shake twice the nets of Larbi "Elgool" (57th and 85th).

This first confrontation therefore ends with the victory of the MCO on the score of 3 goals to 2 against the CRB of the time. The return match does not take place: the CRB wins the match by penalty following the suspension of MC Oran and MC Alger from all football activity by the Minister of Sport at the time.

Second professional era (since 2010)

It was decided by the Ligue de Football Professionnel and the Algerian Football Federation to professionalize the Algerian football championship, starting from the 2010–11 season Thus all the Algerian football clubs which until then enjoyed the status of semi-professional club, will acquire the professional appointment this season. the president of the Algerian Football Federation, Mohamed Raouraoua, has been speaking since his inauguration as the federation's president in Professionalism,[2] On 27 September 2012, the National Society of Marketing and Distribution of Petroleum Products Naftal decided to a probable return to sponsoring the MC Oran after an absence of 24 years. As past, Naftal will sponsoring the all sport's sections of Mouloudia Club Oranais.[3] On 6 January 2019, the Hyproc Shipping Company, a firm of the petroleum company Sonatrach signed a protocol and became MC Oran's sponsor. This initiative became after a long time of waiting the petroleum firm Naftal it's nine years ago.[4] However same as Naftal, no final contract was concluded and Hyproc same as Naftal became a minor sponsors only. On July 23, 2019, the CEO of Madar Holding Charafeddine Amara confirmed that an agreement had been reached with CSA/CRB to buy back 67% of the shares, after the CSA/CRB decided in its general meeting to sell only 47% of the shares of the 75% it holds..[5][6]

On March 15, 2020, the Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) decided to halt the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria.[7] On July 29, 2020, the LFP declared that season is over and CR Belouizdad to be the champion for the first time in 19 years and the seventh in its history.[8] A new appeal has been launched by the Wali of Oran Saïd Sayoud to the shareholders of the société sportive par actions (SSPA) of MC Oran in order to withdraw their share in the said company in favor of the club sportif amateur (CSA) to overcome the crisis that smolders.[9] According to the same official, the SSPA/MCO is already in a “bankruptcy situation”, deploring the attitude of the shareholders who have completely abandoned the club, showing no desire to help it get out of the chaotic situation in which it is struggling. for quite some time.[9] On February 21, In a statement made public on the official page of “the wilaya of Oran”, the wali declared his official withdrawal and his non-interference in the affairs of the MCO team.[10] Despite the efforts and sincere intentions he has deployed, he has not, however, seen any real and serious will on the part of the club's leaders leading to a professional sporting project which reflects the ambitions of the supporters to see their club heart managed mat a national enterprise.[10]

Notes

MC Oran was suspended with MC Alger for a fixed period following the incidents between the two clubs during the 14th Round, the day before Eid al-Fitr in January 1965 at Stade du 20-Août-1955 while both teams were at the top of the standings. Consequently, MCO finished 6th and MCA was relegated to D2.

  3. Second leg match between MC Oran and CR Belouizdad 2019–20 season has been canceled due to COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria.[12][13]
