Mohamed Salah's AFCON dream cut short as Liverpool confirm ‘proper’ injury

Liverpool has confirmed Mohamed Salah's hamstring injury, ending his AFCON journey. Liverpool's next fixtures and Egypt's hopes of qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) have both suffered a severe setback as their star forward Mohamed Salah has been ruled out due to a "proper hamstring tear." The 31-year-old sustained the injury in a hard-fought 2-2 tie with Ghana, and the extent of the rupture was more than first thought. Both Liverpool's future plans and Egypt's campaign have suffered a serious hit as a result of this defeat.
