Salah picks Messi over Ronaldo, Neymar and Kane for World Cup 'last dance'

Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah stated that he would prefer to share a final World Cup experience with Lionel Messi rather than Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, or Harry Kane, just days before Egypt's Round of 16 match against Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This encounter marks the first-ever World Cup meeting between Salah and Messi, who are considered among the greatest players of their generation. The match is significant as it could see Egypt attempt one of the biggest upsets of the tournament by defeating the defending champions. Argentina had previously narrowly advanced past Cape Verde in a tense extra-time match, highlighting potential weaknesses that Egypt hopes to capitalize on.
