Comments
argentina vs egypt just finished 3-2 and wow what a game... pubs were buzzing, phones blowing up, egypt so close at the end and argentina somehow hold on. proper world cup chaos
We dive fully into this World Cup madness rn. Argentina and Egypt going at it live, 3-2 and it's still wide open.
Egypt >> Argentina. 1-0 and they’re not letting up.
lowkey didnt expect egypt up this early fr
Come on Egypt!!! Today's gonna be lit, inshallah we leave happy and the stadium goes crazy behind us 🔥
The 9's gotta move between the center backs, if he just stands still the midfield gets clogged and we're in trouble ⚽
if argentina score early egypt will shut up shop, if not i think it could go to penalties
