Salah makes the difference in Egypt’s fightback victory over Morocco, reports Jonathan Wilson.

Some emails. Thanks for reading, and keeping up with my own confusion at what was going on there. The answer there was not much and then lots of silliness.

Ramzi: “A wholehearted thank you for the utterly amusing and comprehensive summary of the game between Morocco and Egypt. I am genuinely glad that I tuned in to your coverage instead of even watching the game live, wouldn’t want to have missed it.”

Simon: “Surely when Trezeguet scores in extra time that’s the end of the match? At least if Euro 2000 is anything to go by...”

Peter Oh: “A penny - how much would that be in crypto currency? - for Jürgen Klopp’s thoughts on his star striker having played two gruelling extra-time knockout matches on the trot and advancing to the next round”

Ben: “Zamalek did not rate Sobhi... hence his exile to al-Ittihad... on permanent loan.”
