Liverpool legend Mohamed Salah broke Egypt's all-time scoring record with two goals on Friday.
Salah achieved this feat after Egypt thrashed Malawi 5-0 in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
The Trabzonspor winger's first goal, which put him level with Hossam Hassan, came before he scored his landmark 70th goal with a Panenka penalty in added time.
Salah made his international debut in 2011 and has now racked up 123 appearances for Egypt.
The 34-year-old will hope to lead Egypt to victory when they face Malawi in the return leg on Tuesday.
Egypt's all-time top scorers:
1. Mohamed Salah: 70 goals
2. Hossam Hassan: 69 goals
3. Hassan El-Shazly: 49 goals
4. El-Sayed El-Dhizui: 41 goals
5. Mohamed Aboutrika: 38 goals.
