Egypt forward Mohamed Salah has recovered from his shoulder injury and will play in their World Cup opener against Uruguay tomorrow, says coach Hector Cuper.
The Liverpool player was injured in the Champions League final defeat by Real Madrid and has not played since.
“I can almost assure you 100% that he will play, save unforeseen circumstances at the very last minute.”
Egypt and Uruguay are the other two teams, along with Russia and Saudi Arabia, in Group A.
