Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah took his Egypt tally to 70 goals on Friday, passing Hossam Hassan as the country’s leading men’s scorer with two late goals in a 5-0 victory over Malawi.

Egypt moved to the top of its Africa Cup of Nations qualifying group with the victory in Cairo. Salah’s second goal came from the penalty spot. The result also gave new Egypt coach Ali Maher a win in his first game in charge. Salah is away from Liverpool during the November international window.
