Egypt coach Rui Vitoria spoke to the media after his side’s 2-2 draw against Ghana in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Still no victories for Egypt after two games, a situation which does not seem to disturb Rui Vitoria.
The coach was speaking after his side twice came back from behind to salvage a 2-2 draw against Ghana on Thursday.
“I have full confidence in my team, I saw men this evening who fought to the end only victory eluded us. We showed great qualities this evening against a revitalized Ghana.

“The players applied our instructions perfectly. There was room to win the match”, said Vitoria
However, the Portuguese mentor could not avoid the question about the injury of his captain and offensive leader Mohamed Salah, who was substituted towards the end of the opening half due to a suspected hamstring injury.
“At the moment, I cannot comment on the seriousness of his injury. Of course, we are worried and we hope it is not too serious.
“We will have to keep the same state of mind for the next match against Cape Verde.’” he concluded.
