The Liverpool striker's muscle problem was a blow to Egypt's hopes for the tournament and the news was also of great concern to Premier League leaders Liverpool, who believe the injury could be long-term and are urgently awaiting the Egyptian at Anfield Road. The news is all in all very good news, as Salah came off almost in tears when he was substituted and the injury was thought to be more serious.
Egypt are in Group B, which is led by Cape Verde with six points; the Egyptians have two, while Ghana and Mozambique have one. The final matchday on Monday features Egypt-Cape Verde and Ghana-Mozambique.
