Duff issues rallying call to team-mates

After beating Paraguay 2-1 at the RDS, Duff and his colleagues are now hoping to add the Algerians’ scalp at the same venue tomorrow evening, a game which will be watched by Fabio Capello’s assistant Franco Baldini as the England management team use the opportunity to run the rule over their World Cup Group C opponents.
