Bayer Leverkusen star Ibrahim Maza has suffered an injury, the Algerian Football Federation confirmed on Sunday.
The 20-year-old sustained an ankle sprain during Algeria's 1-0 victory over Togo on Saturday, ruling him out of Tuesday's return fixture.
The federation provided no further details regarding the expected length of his absence or when he will return to Leverkusen.
Leverkusen will be hoping Maza recovers in time for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Paderborn.
The attacking midfielder has enjoyed an impressive start to the season, racking up four goals and four assists in 14 appearances for the German side.
