About This Match
Australia face Egypt in the Round of 32 on Friday, July 3, 2026. Australia are ranked #27 in the world and managed by Tony Popovic; Egypt sit at #29 under Hossam Hassan. The match kicks off at 21:30 local time at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
Australia
Australia arrive at World Cup 2026 off the back of their best-ever tournament - a fairytale run to the quarter-finals at Qatar 2022, where they defeated Denmark and Argentina's nemesis Saudi Arabia before pushing eventual champions Argentina hard. The Socceroos, now coached by Tony Popovic, have lost key figures from that generation but retain a competitive nucleus eager to repeat or better that feat. Group D pits Australia against co-hosts United States, Paraguay, and Turkey - a competitive group where they must be at their best to qualify. Australian football is in a positive place, and a motivated Socceroos squad will be tough to beat.
Read Australia preview →Egypt
Egypt arrive at World Cup 2026 with one of football's greatest players at the peak of his powers - Liverpool and Egypt captain Mohamed Salah, arguably the best player in the Premier League over the past decade. The Pharaohs, coached by legendary Egyptian striker Hossam Hassan, have been frustrated by World Cup near-misses for decades and finally return for their fourth appearance. Group G alongside Belgium, Iran, and New Zealand is a competitive draw, but with Salah in form - and the emerging talent of Eintracht Frankfurt's Omar Marmoush - Egypt have a real chance to advance for the first time in their World Cup history. Salah's World Cup fairy-tale story arc will captivate global audiences.
