Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah missed his first penalty as they entered Senegal on Tuesday.
A little about the topic
The Reds player has hinted that he may be ready to retire from international football following his World Cup heartbreak against Senegal. The striker conceded a penalty on Tuesday’s post-match series as his country conceded on the spot in Qatar, after going 1-1 on aggregate over two legs of qualifiers. Now, at the age of 29, he seems to have doubts about whether to return to his duties as a Faroi.
What did Salah say?
The Liverpool star was caught on video in an Egyptian dressing room talking candidly with his teammates. Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah explained that he told the players before the second match that he was proud to play with them and they are one of the best he has played with.
According to Salah he played with the previous generation for a while, with Mohamed Abu Trika and Wael Gomaa, then Abdullah As-Said and his generation, but Mohamed is happy with the current generation. Salah is proud to play with them, and it was an honor for him, and what happened is not to disturb anyone, because the second time is a penalty shootout.
Mohamed Salah also said he didn’t have much to say, but it was an honor to play with them whether he was in the national team after that or not. The Egyptian Sports Minister, however, interrupted him, saying that they would be there.
