Dominating Egypt news in the global press this morning is one of our greatest exports — Mohamed Salah. The Liverpool forward has vowed to bring home the Afcon trophy “sooner or later”after the hamstring injury he gained during the Pharaoh’s last Afcom game against Ghana seems set to possibly keep him out of the competition for good this time round. “I’ve won everything possible but this is the one I did not, yet,” Salah said yesterday. “It will happen somehow. That’s what I believe. And whatever I believe, I achieve. So, it will happen. Sooner or later, it will happen.”
