The Egyptian national team meets its counterpart, the Australian national team, in a match that cannot be divided by two, as part of the round of 32 competitions of the 2026 World Cup.
The Egypt vs Australia match kicks off at 9:00 PM Cairo time, at Dallas Stadium.
The Egyptian team seeks to achieve a historic achievement and qualify for the round of 16 for the first time, in addition to achieving its first win in the knockout stages of the World Cup.
The Pharaohs are bolstered by the return of defensive duo Hossam Abdel-Majid and Hamdi Fathi, after recovering from injury, while Mohamed Abdel-Monem and Ahmed Fattouh are absent due to injury.
Coach Hossam Hassan has not decided on the participation of Mohamed Salah, the Pharaohs' captain, in today's match, but he confirmed that he will not field the national team star unless he is fully ready for the anticipated confrontation against Australia.
The Pharaohs, led by "The General," dream of writing a historic achievement and continuing their remarkable journey in the 2026 World Cup, after the national team delivered performances and results that were well-received by fans during the group stage, and succeeded in advancing to the knockout stages of the World Cup for the first time. However, they hope to extend their time among the elite and continue their World Cup dream.
