Mohamed Salah removes Lionel Messi and Ronaldo from the "best team for 2021"
Today, the prestigious French newspaper, L'Equipe, revealed its choices for the best team for 2021, as the list of 11 players witnessed great surprises in the absence of important elements such as, the Argentine star and Paris Saint-Germain playmaker, Lionel Messi, as well as his traditional rival, the Manchester United sniper Cristiano Ronaldo. .
It is noteworthy that "L'Equipe" is considered one of the oldest sports newspapers in the world, and enjoys the same historical status as the magazine "France Football".
The surprise, according to the newspaper, was that the Egyptian star and Liverpool scorer, Mohamed Salah, was rewarded for the great glow that he showed, especially in the past months, and replaced Messi and Ronaldo in the list, along with the French Real Madrid star Karim Benzema, and also Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski. .
Among the big surprises is the absence of the most prominent star of the French national team and the French League, Kylian Mbappe, along with other prominent names.
And the British newspaper, “Daily Mail”, considered that Salah’s choice in place of Messi and Ronaldo was in order, especially in light of the decline in the level of the two stars significantly in the previous period, compared to what he offers until today, Mohamed Salah.
And it was considered a reward and compensation for Salah for the late rank he won in the Ballon d'Or award presented by "France Football" magazine, and Messi won it for the seventh time in his career.
Team of the Year, according to the choices of the French newspaper L'Equipe:
Goalkeepers: Eduardo Mendy (Chelsea)
Defense: Thiago Hernandez (AC Milan), Marquinhos (Saint Germain), Ruben Diaz (Man City) and Alexander Arnold (Liverpool).
Midfield: Kevin De Bruyne (Man City), Jorginho (Chelsea), N'Golo Kante (Chelsea), Mohamed Salah (Liverpool).
