Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez will be on the plane to Brazil for the World Cup.
Mahrez will form a key part of Algeria's final 23-man squad after impressing for both club and country.
However, there was disappointment for his City team-mate Jeff Schlupp, who was "gutted" after being left out of Ghana's final 23-man squad.
The 23-year-old Mahrez cemented his place on the plane with a dazzling debut for the Desert Foxes in a 3-1 victory over Armenia.
Algeria coach Vahid Halilhodzic heaped praise on the City star following his side's win, showing just how key Mahrez could be to their hopes in Brazil.
"Mahrez had an excellent match. He showed that he is a player who can make a difference, even without the ball," said Halilhodzic.
"He is someone who is not only technical but also a physical force. In the build-up to the second goal, he eliminated his opponents with ease before setting up Nabil Ghilas, who scored the second goal."
The final squad announcement was initially delayed as the Algerian Football Federation waited on the extent of midfielder Hassan Yebda's injury before making the decision.
Algeria face a tough opening game against Belgium on June 17 before clashes with Russia and South Korea in Group H.
Mahrez will become the first City player to represent his country in a World Cup finals since Muzzy Izzet, for Turkey, in 2002.
Meanwhile, 21-year-old Schlupp was one of the final three players to be cut from the Ghana squad following his side's 1-0 defeat to Holland.
He was joined by team-mates Jerry Akamink and David Accam as the trio to miss out.
It was thought that the City academy graduate stood a good chance of making the squad, with Ghana being short of options in the left-back department.
"Great season has come to an end," tweeted Schlupp, after Ghana's final squad was announced.
"Gutted not to be going to the World Cup but time to relax with my family now and get myself ready for next season."
Schlupp said he still enjoyed picking up his second cap for his country at the De Kuip Stadion in Rotterdam.
"Another great experience playing against a quality team and some world-class players in front of 50,000 fans," he said.
