'We will take revenge': Mohamed Salah's brilliant rallying cry to Egypt teammates after AFCON final defeat to Senegal... with the two countries set to meet in winner-takes-all World Cup Qualifying tie next month

Mohamed Salah made a rallying speech to his Egypt teammates after their AFCON final defeat to Senegal, urging them to 'take revenge' in March.

The Pharaohs lost on penalties in Sunday's showpiece in Yaounde after the two teams drew 0-0 over 120 minutes.

Salah was down to take Egypt's fifth spot-kick, but never got the chance to step up after his Liverpool team-mate Sadio Mane decided the game by scoring Senegal's fifth penalty.

Even with his clear disappointment in losing the AFCON final, Mo Salah was still rallying his teammates with a speech in the dressing room after the game.
