Egypt captain Mohamed Salah has stated that expectations should be tempered despite the team's strong performances so far at the Africa Cup of Nations AFCON in Morocco.
Speaking after Egypt's quarter-final qualification, Salah played down suggestions that the Pharaohs are among the favourites to win the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, insisting the team is focused on taking the tournament one step at a time.
According to a statement published on the Confederation of African Football CAF website on Friday, January 9, the Liverpool forward stressed that Egypt remain a work in progress.
