His performance once again highlighted why he is regarded as one of the greatest players in African football history.
A Historic Night for Egyptian Football
The result represents more than just three points. It marks a major milestone for Egyptian football and provides fresh hope for a nation eager to make its mark on the global stage.
With Salah in inspired form and confidence growing within the squad, Egypt now has a genuine opportunity to achieve something special at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
