Egypt to rest Salah for South Sudan AFCON qualifier over pitch concerns

Original: Egypt to rest Salah in South Sudan AFCON qualifier over pitch concerns

Egypt plan to leave Mohamed Salah out of their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against South Sudan, citing concerns over the state of the pitch. The decision is aimed at protecting the Liverpool forward from injury risk in what is largely a low-stakes fixture. Al Jazeera reported the news, which is drawing attention from football fans across the region ahead of the match.

Why now: Salah's involvement in international fixtures is always closely followed, and resting a star player raises questions about fitness and squad management.
