Mohamed Salah, premiership Player of the Year, will help Egypt in their opening World Cup game vs Uruguay. The good news were given by the Pharaohs coach Hector Cuper.

Egypt will face Uruguay tomorrow in Yekaterinburg. Before the game Cuper is quite optimistic about his leader. "I can almost assure you 100% he will play, save unforeseen circumstances at the very last minute," said Cuper as reported by BBC.

The match will be Egypt's first at a World Cup finals in 28 years. Salah was out injured after a clash with Real's Sergio Ramos in UEFA Champions League final last May. There were rumours the player will miss some of the World Cup action, but Liverpool star seems to be alright and ready to show his best.
