Egypt later Monday drew 2-2 with Cape Verde and advanced in second place from its group to the knockout stage.<\/p>\n<p>Salah was forced off during the first half of Egypt\u2019s 2-2 draw with Ghana on Thursday with what the Egyptian federation later said was a muscle injury. It had said Salah would miss Egypt\u2019s next two games at the tournament \u2013 Monday\u2019s final group game and the last 16 match if the Pharaohs reached it.<\/p>\n<p>But Abbas said this was an optimistic assessment. \u201cMohammed\u2019s injury is more serious than first thought and he will be out for 21-28 days, and not 2 games,\u201d the agent wrote on X. On Sunday, Salah said he is still convinced he will finally win the Africa Cup \u201c sooner or later.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
