Mohamed Salah, the star of the Egyptian national team and Liverpool FC, affirmed his commitment to giving his all for the Egyptian national team, stating, “I am not here to play an individual game.
I play as part of a collective effort. We may not have been successful, but the performance improves from one match to another.
I have confidence in my teammates for the upcoming game.
This is the Egyptian national team, not the Salah team or any specific player.”
The team captain continued, “I don’t pay much attention to what is said about me.
I understand the criticisms, and it’s natural in case of a loss. I appreciate those who support the team.
I hope people support the team.
The players are committed, and although we haven’t achieved success in terms of results, we carry the name of Egypt and defend it.
There are experienced players, and the younger ones are affected by the criticisms.”
In the opening match of the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast 2023, Egypt, led by coach Roy Vitoria, drew 2-2 against Mozambique.
The team replicated the same result in the second match against Ghana.
Egypt’s national team will secure a spot in the Round of 16 with a victory in today’s Monday clash against Cape Verde.
Salah’s remarks reflect his dedication to the collective effort, urging fans to support the team as they strive to overcome challenges and progress in the prestigious tournament.
