Egypt takes on Argentina in a live broadcast today

Egypt faces Argentina in a crucial World Cup 2026 match, streamed live on Yalla Shoot. The game kicks off at 20:00 Cairo time, offering a chance to gauge the national side before the knockout stage. Last result was a 1‑1 draw with Belgium (2026‑06‑15) and the recent form (last 5) reads 0 wins‑3 draws‑2 losses.

What is Egypt’s situation before the game?

After a string of draws and defeats, coach Mido Sayed is looking for a quick response. Key players like Mohamed Salah and Mohamed Elneny remain in top shape. The likely line‑up features Salah up front, with a solid defence anchored by Ali Maaloul. Pressure is high because Argentina brings a strong squad led by Lionel Messi in his final season.
