Mostafa Zico’s display of joga bonito on the right wing made us miss the samba boys and almost took Egypt to the promised land.But it was not to be.
This edition of the World Cup is over for Salah.
He got to play only 2 world cups, and that’s hardly enough. His international contribution and club legacy put him in the league of living legends of our lifetime. He was recently named Liverpool’s fourth greatest player in their illustrious history by the club, behind only Steven Gerrard (first), Kenny Dalglish (second) and Ian Rush (third).
So, even if THIS is his last dance, he will still have his name embedded in the football history books.
Argentina with Messi, are hoping for an unimaginable brace of world cups.
And life carries on.Mo Salah seems to be headed to Atletico Madrid next. (LP)
