Final Draw for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia
Finally there: The draw for teams that made it to Russia 2018

1.Mohamed Salah (25 y/o, Egypt)

Who is not excited to have Mohamed Salah at the World Cup. The diminutive striker was instrumental in securing The Pharaohs a spot in the last 32 across the globe and is such a big deal in his home country.

He is an even greater deal in England where he is banging goals for fun in the premier league. He is already the leading striker in Europe with 28 goals, four more than any other player in Europe's top leagues.

A four-goal haul as they went for the break saw him surpass Luis Suarez as the highest scorer in a debut season. Salah's staggering stats also include ten Premier League assists, plus six goals and two assists in the Champions League. The former Chelsea man has a creativity that has people comparing him to Leo Messi.
