Egypt has secured a historic place in the Round of 32 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup for the first time in its history after finishing the group stage with four points.
The qualification marks the end of a long-standing World Cup curse that followed Egypt through its previous appearances in 1934, 1990, and 2018, when the team failed to advance beyond the group stage.
With this achievement, the Pharaohs have opened a new chapter in Egyptian football history, raising hopes among fans for a deeper run in the tournament.
