Mo Salah made the final lineup of Egypt’s World Cup squad, according to the Egyptian Football Association (EFA). Salah appears to be showing positive signs of recovery from his shoulder injury. The story is being widely picked up by the foreign press, with the Associated Press noting that the Liverpool top scorer “almost single-handedly led Egypt to its first World Cup since 1990.” In other football news yesterday, national team coach Hector Cuper was recently declared the highest paid among Africa’s World Cup coaches this year, coming in at number 11 out of 32 World Cup-bound managers on a pay list released by the Daily Mirror.
