In another day of unpredictable World Cup action, Egypt have stunned Belgium with a landmark opener at Seattle Stadium on Monday.
The goal came 20 minutes into the match as Mohamed Salah picked out Emam Ashour on the edge of the D.

With time and space, Ashour took a touch and unleashed a low, powerful strike into the bottom-left corner.
It is the 28-year-old's first international goal and Egypt's fastest-ever World Cup goal.
Additionally, with that assist, Salah now has three goal contributions in three career World Cup matches. Not a bad way to mark your 34th birthday.
Coming into the match, Belgium were unbeaten in their last seven World Cup openers, but with an aging squad, the Belgians have struggled to cope with Egypt's first-half energy.
So, are we witnessing the end of Belgium's golden generation, or can the Red Devils turn things around in the second 45?
