Video: Where’s the defensive control… New Zealand surprise Egypt with a surprise goal

In the second round of the Seventh Group of the 2026 World Cup, the New Zealand national team took the lead in the match with the Egyptian national team.

Egypt started the tournament attacking, trying to take the lead, but the Pharaohs did not make good use of their opportunities and were punished by their opponents.

In the 15th minute, Finn Surman got up with a special pass and headed past goalkeeper Mustafa Schubert as he was unmarked by the defense.

The referee of the match, Emirati Omar Al-Alin Yasser Ibrahim, demanded to cancel the goal due to a foul on the New Zealand player, but the referee refused and awarded the goal.
