As a result of Mohamed Salah’s ιnjury, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will be worried about Egypt’s chances in their Africa Cup of Nations encounter against Ghana. On the cusp of halftime, Salah hobbled off the field clutching the back of his left leg, indicating that he needed medical assistance. A slew of ailments has already hampered Liverpool.
While Egypt was playing Ghana in the Africa Cup of Nations group stage, Mohamed Salah suffered an ιnjury that forced him to leave the game.
Just before halftime, the Liverpool striker hobbled off the pitch to get treatment for what appeared to be a hamstring ιnjury.
Mostafa Fathi took his place, and Ahmed Hegazi, a defender, was given the captain’s armband.
Moments after that, Egypt took a further Һit. For Ghana, the first goal came from Mohammed Kudus, who scored a strong shot from outside the penalty area just before halftime.
The Pharaohs were equalized after the halftime by Omar Marmoush, but Ghana regained the lead through Kudus’ second goal of the match. The match ended in a 2-2 draw, with Mostafa Mohamed scoring both equalizers.
The severity of Salah’s ιnjury remаins uncertain, according to Egypt manager Rui Vitoria.
He hoped that wouldn’t be a major issue. At this time, we have no idea what the issue is. It was an issue in the first half; I hope it’s not major.Because we were limited to just two subs in the second half, the timing was all wrong. I am uncertain at this time. I don’t think it’s hazardous, but we’ll have to wait to see if Salah gets better. It’s too early to tell.
Jurgen Klopp, manager of Liverpool, will be worried about Salah’s replacement because of the team’s ιnjury situation.
At this time, the bench is full with players like Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai, Andy Robertson, Thiago Alcantara, Kostas Tsimikas, and Stefan Bajcetic.
Klopp gave the impression that Liverpool could “deal” without Salah in the Africa Cup of Nations by relying on attacking options like Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Cody Gakpo.
“We must overcome this obstacle,” he stated. “We know the Africa Cup of Nations appears and Mo has to go, and so we have to deal with it, that was always clear.”
In Egypt’s debut encounter at the Africa Cup of Nations, Salah started every minute and scored the game-winning goal in a tҺrilling 2-2 tie against Mozambique.
As a team, Egypt is currently in second place in Group B, where they will face Ghana in their second match. To advance to the round of 16, they will most likely require a victory in their last match against Cape Verde.
