Egypt Wins!

On day 11 of the World Cup Egypt took the field against New Zealand for their second group stage game. Both teams had one point and were looking for a crucial win. Egypt had been to the World Cup before but has drew every game they had played making them have a 7 game draw streak. New Zealand started off the scoring early and took a 1-0 lead into the half. Everyone including myself were think something along the lines of “Egypts going to tie again” but that was not the case this time. The Egyptians came out of half time firing. The “Egyptian king” Mohamed Salah assisted the first goal to tie the game up then scored the second goal in the 67th minute. Then to put the game to rest Trezeguet scored in the 82 minute completely closing the door on New Zealand. Egypt would later get their very long awaited first ever World Cup Win.
