Mohamed Salah returned to Liverpool training 'before lunchtime' after his ordeal in Egypt
This season, MOHAMED SALAH is hungry for more trophies with Liverpool...
Mohamed Salah is said to have reported for Liverpool training before lunchtime, just hours after Egypt's World Cup play-off defeat to Senegal. The Pharaohs were defeated on penalties by their opponents for the second time in as many months, falling at the final hurdle on their way to Qatar after a 1-1 tie over two legs.
Unfortunately, Salah was forced to shoulder some of the blame after skipping his penalty from 12 yards before teammate Sadio Mane fired the game-winning goal.
However, it appears that the forward wants to get back to work with Liverpool as soon as possible to avoid dwelling on the disastrous defeat.
Despite the fact that the match in Senegal ended late on Tuesday evening, Salah was back on Merseyside and at Kirkby for training before lunchtime on Wednesday, according to the Times.
After the agonizing blow, a private jet was waiting to whisk Salah back to the North West from Dakar.
After failing to take a penalty in the Africa Cup of Nations final shootout in Cameroon, the 29-year-old chose to take the first penalty this time.
However, as he stood waiting for the referee's whistle, a dozen lasers flashed in his eyes, putting him off.
Salah's penalty went over the bar and into orbit before two of his Egyptian teammates fluffed their lines as well.
Senegal advanced to the finals thanks to penalties from Ismaila Sarr, Bamba Dieng, and Mane.
