In the span of the match’s final 10 minutes, Argentina came from 2–0 down to win 3–2 against Egypt in the 2026 World Cup round of 16, narrowly escaping what might have been the tournament’s biggest-ever upset at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
A pumped-up Egypt started the match with more zip and caught Argentina cold as Yasser Ibrahim headed home from Marwan Ateya’s inviting cross after 15 minutes.
