Emam Ashour

ANALYSIS
Ashour was unable to continue following the opening 45 minutes and informed the coaching staff that he could not carry on. The midfielder had been an important figure for Egypt throughout the tournament, making his early exit a significant concern in a high-stakes knockout match. The nature and severity of the injury have not yet been disclosed, and further evaluation is expected to determine his status going forward. Egypt will be hoping the issue is not serious, given Ashour's influence in midfield.
