Mohamed Salah, finally, was able to play a match in this 2018 World Cup. The Liverpool forward missed the first match due to injury, but on Tuesday he started in the match between Russia and Egypt in Saint Petersburg.
Unfortunately, for the interests of the African team, 'Momo's' team lost 3-1. However, the striker was able to score a goal thanks to a shot from twelve yards.
Salah was pulled and fell in Russia's penalty area. At first, the referee awarded a free kick, but then his colleagues who took action through VAR informed him that it was inside. In this way, with his left foot, he beat the goalkeeper Akinfeev.
With the result, the Egyptians have zero points after two matches. They only have the option that Saudi Arabia beats Uruguay to stay alive in the last match.
This was Mohamed Salah's goal against Russia. (Author: FIFA / Source: DirecTV)
