Egyptian Fans Singing Happy Birthday To Mo Salah At The World Cup Will Give You Goosebumps

Uruguay was the late winner as they began their World Cup opener with a dramatic victory over Egypt on Friday.

Mo Salah, who also had his birthday on Friday, didn’t play in the match

But fans in the stadium and all over the world did not forget him for even a passing moment.

And then when Egypt lost

STOP SHOWING MO SALAH LOOKING SAD THIS IS HEARTBREAKING

But they also respected Egypt’s decision to let Mo Salah sit out ths match

Love that Egypt’s management have enough faith in their performance team to wait for Mo Salah rather than desperately rush him
