The decision to keep Salah out of the match was made by the technical team to preserve his physical integrity, as per an agreement between the technical committee and the player before the match against Angola. The match against South Sudan is scheduled to take place at the Estádio de Juba, which has a synthetic grass field. This is the reason cited by the EFA for Salah's absence.

The Egyptian national team is set to face South Sudan in a crucial match in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers. The team's technical committee has taken the decision to protect Salah's physical well-being, given the artificial grass field at the Estádio de Juba. This move is seen as a precautionary measure to prevent any potential injuries to the star player.

The match against South Sudan is a significant one for the Egyptian national team, and the absence of Salah will undoubtedly be felt. However, the technical committee's decision to prioritize his physical integrity is a testament to their commitment to the player's well-being.

The Egyptian national team will now have to rely on other players to fill the void left by Salah's absence. The team's performance will be closely watched, and it remains to be seen how they will adapt to the loss of their star player.
