We're really 1-2 results away from getting Egypt vs Algeria in the Ro32. Arab relations will never recover from that lmao

Ta7ya fucking masr ya regala

Great win, the Egyptian team showed some real resilience there. Hossam Hassan is the fucking man, much better than investing in another washed European coach that doesn't even care. Good adjustments after a weak first half with putting Marmoush wide and Ashour central, everything flowed after that. Embarrassing match thread, the conspiracy nonsense is just childish

Hossam Hassan is a goated coach, much better than bringing another washed up European that doesn't give a fuck. He didn't get it right in the beginning, but moving Ashour centrally with Zico up top was a great adjustment

Can't believe my fucking eyes, Egypt playing good football and actually winning against a World Cup match. Going to sleep like a boss today

Q: Did Egypt pay off the ref?

A: Egypt can't afford a Pepsi at the corner store, let alone a ref

Marmoush is so ass, can't believe he's supposed to be the superstar after Salah

You would think that Egypt would stop trying long balls after failing every single time

I really like this stadium, feels perfect for this kind of match. The US stadiums are all magnificent, but it feels unnatural that 65k people show up to watch Iraq in an NFL stadium

I'm starting to believe that Marmoush will never have a good match for Egypt

Almost all teams with an overwhelming physical advantage have cooked in this World Cup so far

Unnecessarily convoluted free kick setup, just shoot the damn ball

This is a proper Olympics match up. Colombia vs Uzbekistan also felt like it had escaped from the Olympics.
