The match had started poorly for Mohamed Salah's teammates, who were caught off guard in the 15th minute by Fin Surman's opening goal for New Zealand. Far from panicking, the Egyptians intensified their pressure in the second half, forcing the opposing defense to buckle.

  1. 58th minute: Mostafa Ziko sparks the comeback and equalizes for Egypt.
  2. 70th minute: Liverpool's captain and star, Mohamed Salah , gives his team the lead after a superb combination with Ziko.
  3. 82nd minute: Just coming on as a substitute, Mohamed Trezeguet seals the match with a diving header from a pinpoint cross by Salah.

After their strong start against Belgium, the Pharaohs confirm their excellent form in this World Cup co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.
