President Abdel Fattah El Sisi extolled on Monday the national football team's qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, saying "I record my profound respect and appreciation to all of you and your efforts."
Speaking at a cultural symposium organized by the Armed Forces to mark the 44th anniversary of October War Victory, the president said "in just one hour, you managed to gladden the heart of 100 million Egyptians."
Sisi expressed his thanks and appreciation for Egyptian player Mohamed Salah and all players and the coaching staff.
Liverpool's star Mohamed Salah scored the opening goal of the match. He then scored an injury-time penalty to seal a 2-1 victory over Congo and a spot in Russia.
