Egypt’s win over Sierra Leone was marred by chaotic scenes as pitch invaders had to be tackled and chased away by security and even army personnel to protect star player Mo Salah. The Liverpool winger was nearly attacked by opposition fans who ran onto the pitch, prompting the army to rush in and form a protective ring around the shaken Salah. Shockingly, one of the invaders was wearing a Manchester City shirt, adding to the tension on the field. Despite the off-field disturbances, Egypt secured a 2-0 victory with Trezeguet scoring both goals and Salah assisting the second. Meanwhile, Liverpool will need to address concerns about Salah’s safety, as Saudi teams have expressed interest in signing him in the upcoming transfer window.
