Australia will face Egypt in a 2026 FIFA World Cup round of 32 showdown on Friday, July 3, 2026, at Dallas Stadium on FOX. 

At a sixth straight World Cup and seventh overall, Australia has reached its third knockout stage and made consecutive World Cup knockout stages for the first time in its nation’s history.

The Socceroos finished runner-up in Group D, advancing with four points after beating Türkiye 2-0, losing 2-0 to the U.S. and drawing 0-0 against Paraguay. 

Australia had the fifth-lowest possession (42%) and fourth-fewest shots (26) of any team that advanced to the knockout stage, while allowing the third-most shots (47).

Meanwhile, Egypt has advanced to the knockout stage for the first time, having gone out in the group stage in both 2018 and 1990. 

Egypt’s win over New Zealand and two draws against Belgium and Iran were enough to advance to the knockout stage with five points.

However, the Pharaohs will not have defensive midfielder Mohanad Lashin because of suspension for yellow cards against both New Zealand and Iran.
