The Egyptian national team achieved a historic milestone at the 2026 World Cup, hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico—marking their first appearance in this tournament. They managed to advance beyond the group stage for the first time after defeating New Zealand 3-1, then edged out Australia on penalties in the Round of 16. However, their journey ended in the quarter-finals with a 3-2 loss to Argentina, despite leading 2-0 until the 79th minute. The media was also impressed by the performance of team captain Mohamed Salah, who was ranked among the fastest players in the tournament with a top speed of 35.5 km/h, placing him among the top 10 fastest players, just behind Frenchman Ousmane Dembélé, who recorded a speed of 35.6 km/h.
