Social Media Hit-hard on Salah as Egypt Lose to Nigeria

A lot of social media users have criticized Mohammed Salah immediately Egypt were beaten by Nigeria in their group stage opening match at the ongoing African Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Kelechi Iheanacho super blast into the net saw the Super Eagles took three points away, leaving the Salah’s side dejected at full time.

Surprisingly, and despite the superstar’s best efforts, he has been savaged by a number of people online, with many taking light-hearted swipes at his inability to recoup a result.

The 29-year-old saw a stinging volley blocked during the clash, but the linesman’s flag was raised for an earlier offside, which would have ruled out the potential goal.

Statistics recorded by Opta showed that Salah was restricted to just 35 touches on the ball, with four coming inside the opposition’s penalty area.

Adding to his frustrating evening, the typically prolific forward mustered up just one shot, and also attempted two dribbles, one of which was successful.

See below, some of the sighted blasts Salah received online/Twitter:
