After winning the hearts of many with the splendid show performance against Germany in the round 16 of World Cup, the Algerians have decided to donate their prize money to the poor in Gaza.

UK-based Daily Mail reported Algeria forward Islam Slimani as saying, "[Gaza] need it more than us," adding that, it was the team's decision to donate the prize money.

The display of generosity by Algerians has once again surprised the whole world and surely they must have won more hearts.

On their return, Algerian team received an overwhelming welcome by the people. The players paraded through the streets in a bus.
