Australia v Egypt

Summary

Australia v Egypt (Kick-off 7.00pm). Coverage of the round-of-32 match at Dallas Stadium in the USA. Australia finished second in Group D behind United States after they picked up four points from their three matches. They did lose 2-0 to the co-hosts but a 2-0 victory over Turkiye and a 0-0 draw against Paraguay meant they progressed to the knockout stages for the second successive World Cup. Egypt came through their group undefeated, beating New Zealand and drawing with Belgium and Iran, with the winners expected to face Argentina in the last 16

Review

Ned Holmes

History will be made when Australia and Egypt meet in the round of 32 at the Dallas Stadium. Neither nation has won a knockout match at a World Cup and the prize for the victorious team is a place in the last 16 of this summer’s tournament.

Australia qualified second behind USA in Group D, while Egypt were runners up in Group G.
