• Salah bagged a brace for Egypt against Niger on Friday, September 23
• The Egyptian scored a stunner and a penalty as his side ran out comfortable 3-0 winners
• Unfortunately, Salah is among the big names that will not be at the Qatar World Cup in November

Mohammed Salah put his Liverpool woes behind him as he bagged a brace for Egypt in the 3-0 win over Niger on Friday, September 23.

Salah, like his Liverpool side has endured a tough start to the 2022/23 campaign, netting just three goals and two assists in his side’s opening six games.

For Egypt, however, he was in superb form as he found the net inside 43 minutes with a sublime strike into the right corner.

Egypt, who painfully missed out on a World Cup ticket, were 2-0 up thanks to Mostafa Mohamed, who added a second in the 55th minute.

With just over 20 minutes to go, Salah put the result beyond doubt from the penalty spot.

Struggling Liverpool

It was the perfect break for Salah, away from his club, who have struggled against the odds early on in the campaign.

After the loss of Sadio Mane to Liverpool and a summer transfer haul that has failed to produce expected results, Liverpool find themselves eighth on the log, with league leaders Arsenal having twice as many as Jurgen Klopp’s side’s nine points.

Injuries and suspensions have also done little to help the Reds, and the midfield has been the most affected area so far this season.

Mohammed Salah will be hoping his fairly good form for Egypt can be replicated for his club once again after the international break.

For now, attention will be focused to the other friendly slated for Tuesday, September 27 against Liberia.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s next fixture in the league is another tricky home game against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Elsewhere, Salah recently gatecrashed a couple’s wedding photoshoot in full Egypt national team colours in what was a delightful surprise.

The newlyweds happened to be staying at the same hotel as the Egypt national team and were having their official photos taken.

As the couple was engrossed in the shoot, they were handed a surprise as Salah casually jogged to the fame and posed with them, leaving everyone around in stitches.
