Prediction: 2-1
Niger
Egypt will look to bounce back from a heavy 4-1 loss to South Korea when they face Niger in yet another international friendly. The likes of Shady Hussein, Nasser Mansi, Baher Elmohamady, Ahmed Madbouli, Emad Dunga, Ahmed Adel, Marwan Attia, and Ahmed Sherif have been left out of the squad, while a man to watch in Rui Vitoria’s team will be Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah.
The Menas, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-1 win over Togo, but they will have a mountain to climb in Thursday’s friendly. The Pharaohs defenders should have Victorien Adebayor at bay, who has netted 17 goals in 46 appearances for the national team. Egypt emerged triumphant in three of the previous four meetings with Niger, which is yet another reason why we are going to put our money on Mo Salah and Co.
Highlighted Player (Mohamed Salah):
Mohamed Salah is considered one of the best African players. Salah began his senior career at El Mokawloon, scoring 11 goals in 41 league appearances for the club and in 2012 he moved to Europe, signing a four-year deal with Swiss side Basel.
The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as a striker as well was producing outstanding displays for the RotBlau from 2012 to 2014 and, as a result, Chelsea chiefs decided to sign him on 26 January, 2015 for a fee of £11 million. Mohamed Salah, though, failed to impress in the Premier league and one year later he was sent on loan to Fiorentina.
After making 16 league appearances for the Viola in the Serie A, the left-footed winger signed a loan deal with Roma on 6 August, 2015. The Romans made the contract permanent on 3 August, 2016. Speaking of his international career, Salah made his Egypt debut on 3 September, 2011 in a 2-1 loss to Sierra Leone. It has to be noted that he was named Roma’s player of the season (2015/2016).
