🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimović Praises Egypt’s Dominant 3-1 Win Over New Zealand 🗣️ People will focus on the 3-1 scoreline, but the performance was far more impressive than the result itself. This wasn't a team relying on moments of brilliance. Egypt looked organised, composed and full of belief from the first whistle. Every player understood their role, and they played with the confidence of a side that knows exactly what it wants to achieve. Then there was Mohamed Salah. A goal and an assist only tell part of the story. His movement, leadership and decision-making lifted everyone around him. He didn't force the game - he controlled it. That's what the very best players do. What stood out most was his celebration after scoring. It wasn't just happiness; it was relief, pride and years of sacrifice coming together in one unforgettable moment. You could see how much representing Egypt on the biggest stage means to him. The scary thing for the rest of the tournament is that Egypt never looked satisfied. Even with the advantage, they kept pressing, kept attacking and kept searching for another goal. That's the mentality of teams that believe they can go deep in a competition. Before the tournament, many people overlooked Egypt. Performances like this make that impossible now. If I were one of the tournament favourites, I'd be paying close attention. Because a team built around discipline, confidence and a world-class leader like Salah is capable of causing problems for anyone. World Cups aren't won on reputation. They're won by teams that rise when the pressure is greatest. Tonight, Egypt looked every bit like one of those teams.
