New Zealand Clash With Egypt in Thrilling World Cup Showdown—Follow Live Scores and Stats!

New Zealand and Egypt enter their Group G fixture at the World Cup riding the momentum of positive opening-round results.

The All Whites put in a gutsy performance in their first World Cup outing since 2010, earning a 2–2 draw against Iran, while Egypt arguably pulled off the greater upset by holding tournament favorite Belgium to a 1–1 stalemate.

That positions Egypt as the marginal favorite ahead of the showdown at BC Place in Vancouver.

Although New Zealand will draw confidence from its showing against Iran, the side has gone without a victory in competitive or friendly action for over a year. Egypt can also take encouragement from a recent head-to-head encounter during the FIFA Series in 2024, where the Pharaohs edged out a 1–0 win—a result they will be eager to replicate come Sunday.
