Algeria coach Georges Leekens has resigned following the team's early exit from the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Desert Foxes were one of the pre-tournament favourites but crashed out of the finals on Monday after failing to win a game in Gabon.
"For the good of all I decided to quit even though I do it with heart ache," Leekens told the Algerian Football Federation website.
"I wish all the success in the world to the national side."
