Salah Vs Mane in the AFCON final, it had to be. Only reason I want Egypt to win it is to help Salah win individual awards but would be happy for Mane either way.— Barry LFC O Sullivan (@NotoriousLFC) February 3, 2022

so in ur opinion if Liverpool come then we will have respect we as Africans respect this tournament and that is enough for us we don't care if Europeans don't respect it
It will serve as a thing of joy to some of the key members of the club (Salah and Mane), it’s going to be a huge respect for them!!!!!

trust me as a Liverpool fan u don't want this we love both of them too much that we can't pick between Senegal and Egypt but Senegal has a strong squad but as we saw this competition has a history of dumping strong nation very early so it's impossible for us to pick between mo and mane
