The winner of the African Championship - Egypt - was surprised yesterday (Sunday) after a penalty shootout against the Democratic Republic of the Congo and flew out of the current tournament in disgrace already at the round of 16.
Mohamed Salah, one of the best players in the world in the last generation, was indeed injured after being injured in the first game of the tournament and has already returned to receive treatment in his Liverpool team uniform, but he still did not come out free from the harsh criticism in the country.
The former footballer, who played for Ajax, Marseille and Tottenham among others and won the African Championship with Egypt in 2006, attacked Salah in a severe manner.
"Egypt is a team with a great history, but we must talk about Mohamed Salah's place in this history. We all respected his request to fly to Liverpool to receive treatments there, but it is impossible for him to announce that he will return later, only if the team reaches the semi-finals. His conduct Made Egypt lose its character."

Another person who joined the attack and went against the heads of the Egyptian association is the member of the Senate, Riham Afifi, who demands the establishment of a parliamentary investigation committee to impeach the Egyptian national team in the round of 16 of the African Championship.
"The Football Association is behind the injustice and the lack of clarity regarding Salah's injury. It is to blame that he could not be treated in the Ivory Coast and he had to fly to England. You cannot continue to rely on foreign coaches, who are paid in dollars, while there are Egyptian football coaches who are able to promote The national team. All the problems that led to the failure should be investigated and made public. If we don't solve them, the national team will not succeed."
