Goal | 22.06.2026 13:41
Despite entering the contest as heavy favourites with Salah and Omar Marmoush leading the line, Egypt were hit by a sucker punch in the 15th minute. Slack defending during a set-piece allowed New Zealand's Finn Surman to rise highest and power home a header from Tim Payne’s corner, momentarily silencing the vocal Egyptian contingent.
