Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has had a school named in his honour after his heroics helped Egypt qualify for the 2018 World Cup.
Mohamed Salah has been a standout player for Liverpool this season following his £40million move from Roma.
And the 25-year-old has also been delivering on the international stage with Egypt, helping them secure their place in the 2018 World Cup.
His 95th minute winner in the 2-1 victory over Congo booked their place in Russia - their first World Cup finals since Italy 1990.
And to mark the achievement Salah’s former school in Bassyoun has been renamed in his honour.

"That was to me a dream come true, whether as a footballer or an Egyptian citizen and fan.
“I’m proud I made the Egyptians happy today by scoring today twice against Congo.
“The game was a difficult one tonight and all the qualifiers were difficult games as well, today there is no big difference between every team and the other.”
Salah will be hoping to maintain his fine form for Liverpool on Saturday as they take on rivals Manchester United at Anfield (12.30pm).
He has made 11 appearances for the Reds this term in all competitions, scoring six goals and providing two assists.
