At 34 years and 7 days old, Salah became the oldest African player to score a goal and provide an assist in the same match in World Cup history since at least 1966. Opta.
@SamueILFC It doesn’t feel right, but the powers that be wanted him gone no matter what. What’s done is done. Glad he’s showing everyone that he’s not the washed player they made him out to be & that his legs are still intact & that they’ll be creating & scoring for another club soon.
@choloo_la Totally! I hope we get our line up and game plan right for the Iran game. Can’t afford a crappy 1st half again. It’s going to be a proper street brawl and these guys will put up one helluva physical fight.
@choloo_la I know, but it’s the reason I’m far more nervous for this one. Really hope HH has an ace up his sleeve and really hope our boys go just as hard as they did against Belgium if not harder.
🚨🎙️ Roy Keane on the overlooked foul on Zizo on the edge of the penalty in the World Cup match between Belgium and Egypt ;
“Jesus Christ, did you see that on Zizo?! Meunier has his arms wrapped around him like a bloody octopus, pulls him down after he gets the ball past him – that’s a clear penalty! If it’s not a pen, it’s a free-kick, end of story!
But nooo… the referee bottles it completely and VAR just sits there doing sweet FA again. No courage, no consistency, absolutely shocking. These officials are ruining the game. Egypt robbed.
What do you have to do to get a decision these days?! #WorldCup #BELvEGY”
