They Finished 30th: EGYPT

Uruguay’s win over Saudi Arabia condemned Egypt to a fate they knew was coming.

Losing 2 of 2 is find your passports and pack your bags time. 

Yeah, OK, there’s another game to play against another side that’s on its way home, but all the hassle and joy of qualifying is lost. 

You’re out. 

Your star man played through injury, scored you a penalty, but Salah was never going to be able to do it all himself, even fully fit. 

And certainly not with Russia looking like one of the best teams in the tournament.

The Armchair believes the Egyptians will look back on World Cup 2018 and regard it as a tournament of If Only.
