The Pharaohs are looking to qualify to the 16th round in the second place to avoid facing tough teams like Senegal or Morocco in the early rounds.

 

The Egyptian national team will lose the efforts of its captain, Mohamed Salah, during today’s match against Cape Verde, due to a strain in the posterior muscle, which he suffered in the last match with Ghana. Salah will return to Liverpool to continue his treatment.
