MOHAMED SALAH could be seen fighting back tears after being forced off injured at Afcon.
The Liverpool star was playing for Egypt in their group-stage clash against Ghana when he was forced off.
The forward's issue is reported to be a suspected hamstring injury.
But the Pharaohs were dealt a double-whammy blow with Mohammed Kudus netting the opener for Ghana a minute after Salah was taken off.
The extent of Salah's injury for now remains unclear.
Depending on the grade of Salah's injury, the 31-year-old could be out for as many as six weeks, which would end his time at Afcon.
