Guinea-Bissau vs Egypt: All eyes on Salah as Pharaohs aim to bounce back - Punch Newspapers

Egypt will expect more from star man Mohamed Salah against Guinea-Bissau as the record seven-time champions attempt to bounce back from an opening loss to Nigeria at the Africa Cup of Nations.

It could be argued there is no better player in the world right now than the 29-year-old forward, who has scored 54 times for Liverpool since the start of last season. He has downplayed Egypt’s chances of lifting the trophy, suggesting the Pharaohs are not the title favourites, but expectations remain high for a team that bitterly disappointed on home soil in 2019.

While the 24-team format affords sides more leeway, Egypt now face the very realistic prospect of drawing reigning champions Algeria or Ivory Coast in the next round — assuming they advance from Group D.

pharaohs of Egypt,they need to change that name,anyway what day is the match

This AFCON is very weird. Nobody should ever compare Africa and Europe ever again!

Which one be pharaoh again.. 😂
