Egypt believes it has a strong roster around Salah as it prepares to face Belgium in World Cup

AI Summary

Egypt is preparing to face Belgium in the World Cup with a strong roster centered around Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush. Despite Egypt never winning a World Cup match or leading often, the team aims to leverage their key players' experience against Belgium's strong lineup including Kevin De Bruyne.

Egypt's World Cup opener against Belgium on Monday will pit former Liverpool standout Mohamed Salah in an underdog role against longtime Manchester City stalwart Kevin De Bruyne and his talented teammates. Egypt has never won a World Cup match and has led only once in seven games. Aside from Salah, who has yet to decide where he will play next after a nine seasons with Liverpool, Egypt’s attack features Omar Marmoush of Manchester City. The tandem of Salah and Marmoush has caught the eye of Belgium manager Rudi Garcia, who coached the former when he played for Roma.
