Mohamed Sabry, the goalkeeper for the Egyptian national team, has disclosed valuable insights from Liverpool’s winger, Mohamed Salah, offering guidance to the Pharaohs’ stars.
Speaking on MBC Masr channel, the Zamalek goalkeeper shared Salah’s motivational advice to the team, emphasizing the importance of focus leading up to the championship.
Sabry highlighted that Salah regularly communicates with the players to uplift their spirits and stress the need for concentration in anticipation of the tournament.
Among the notable pieces of advice imparted by Salah, Sabry underscored the Liverpool star’s recommendation to refrain from using phones on match days.
The emphasis was on dedicating full attention to the game itself and steering clear of social media distractions.
“I enjoy conversing with Salah, and I’ve learned a lot from him.
His role within the Egyptian national team is significant. His presence in the camp makes a difference, and everyone appreciates him.
He is a strong supporter for us,” Sabry remarked.
The goalkeeper went on to elaborate on Salah’s discussions about the player’s mentality, revealing the secret behind Salah’s physical development.
According to Sabry, Salah worked on strengthening himself after moving to Liverpool, adapting to the robust nature of the English Premier League.
“Salah advises me to set goals and work towards achieving them.
He emphasizes not paying attention to criticism and responding only on the field.
He stresses the importance of thorough preparation for matches and how to handle the ball with quick reactions,” Sabry concluded.
As Egypt gears up for the AFCON, Salah’s wisdom and experience are proving instrumental, not only in enhancing the team’s sporting prowess but also in fostering a positive and determined mindset among the players.
The Pharaohs will undoubtedly carry Salah’s guidance onto the field as they embark on their AFCON campaign with aspirations for success in the prestigious tournament.
