Salah’s strike - a thunderous 20-yard free-kick after just 11 minutes – proved the only goal of Egypt’s final group stage game against Ghana on a wet evening in Gabon.
It was a second consecutive AFCON 2017 victory for the Pharaohs after a 1-0 win against Uganda on Saturday and means Egypt are the only team to progress through the group stage without conceding a goal.
The Roma forward will be back in action on Sunday when Egypt take on Morocco and former Giallorossi defender Mehdi Benatia.
