Egypt World Cup history
Egypt were the first African and Arab nation to play at a World Cup, debuting in 1934, and 2026 is only their fourth appearance (after 1934, 1990 and 2018). The Pharaohs are still seeking a first-ever World Cup victory, having drawn twice and lost five times across the finals.
What to know for 2026
- Qualified comfortably from CAF, led by talisman Mohamed Salah.
- Salah, Egypt's greatest-ever player, will be desperate to finally win a match at the finals after the disappointment of 2018.
- Record African champions hoping to translate continental pedigree onto the world stage.
