He also claims that the Senegalese fans threw bottles and stones at the players during the warm-up and attacked the team bus as it approached the stadium. The Egyptian Federation posted photos of the incidents on its official Instagram account. Liverpool striker Santio Mane scored the crucial spot in the penalty shootout to send Senegal to the World Cup final against Egypt. An Egyptian FA statement said: “The Egyptian national team has been exposed to racism with aggressive signs on the stands against the Egyptian players in general, and Mohamed Salah in particular. “The crowd also scared the players by throwing bottles and stones at them during the warm-up. “The Egyptian group buses have also been exposed to attacks that resulted in broken windows and injuries; they were submitted with photos and videos as evidence in the complaint that was submitted.” A FIFA spokesman told Sky Sports News: “FIFA is currently in the process of analyzing official reports of the FIFA World Cup qualifier between Senegal and Egypt. “The relevant information contained in the reports of the games will be evaluated by the competent disciplinary bodies before deciding on the next steps to be taken.” There was further controversy during the match as it appeared that the home fans’ fans shone with lasers in the eyes of the Egyptian players as they prepared to take penalties.

Salah missed his penalty – throwing his kick over the crossbar. Mane’s spot-kick ended the dramatic second game at the Diamniadio, after Hamdi Fathi’s own goal in the fourth minute lifted the hosts after Egypt’s 1-0 victory in Cairo on Friday night. The result was the replay of the African Cup of Nations final two months ago, when Mane scored the winning penalty again. Senegal dominated most of the process and Egypt owed to goalkeeper Mohamed El Shenawy, who made a series of amazing saves to deny Pape Abdou Cisse and Ismaila Sarr extra time. “I was not worried about how they would manage the game mentally. We have kids who have won the Champions League,” said winning coach Ali Cisse.
