Mo Salah with ‘miss of the season’ as Liverpool icon casually skies his shot from two yards out for Egypt
MO SALAH produced a shocking miss in action for Egypt against Guinea.
The Liverpool star has a fine record of hitting the back of the net but wanted the ground to swallow him up after somehow missing from close range.
Former Aston Villa winger Trezeguet picked the ball up of the left of the box and cut in before firing alow shot that was well saved.
Salah followed up but somehow spooned the ball over the bar from all of two yards out.
It was a chance that looked harder to miss and had the tricky winger looking up to the heavens in despair.
Salah did redeem himself later in the half as played a perfectly weighted pass through to Trezeguet to score, but that did not stop fans from having a pop at the Liverpool hero.
One said: “Salah with a late contender for miss of the season.”
Another added: “How did Salah miss that ”
A third said: “No way they compared Salah to Mahrez, what is this miss.”
And another commented: “Finished player.”
