Argentina vs Egypt: TV Channel, Kick-off Time, and Viewing Guide for World Cup Last-16

Argentina Faces Egypt in World Cup Last-16

The holders, Argentina, hope to avoid a tough knockout match as they take on Egypt in the World Cup last-16. Their previous round was a nail-biter, stretching into extra time against Cape Verde. Argentina managed a 3-2 win thanks to an own goal after being twice pegged back.

Egypt draws confidence from their first-ever knockout victory, having triumphed over Australia in a penalty shootout. Mohamed Salah aims to inspire the Pharaohs to another historic result.

Lionel Messi has scored seven goals so far, but he faces stiff competition from Kylian Mbappe as they chase the golden boot.

Team Updates

Argentina may face issues after the exhausting match versus Cape Verde. Facundo Medina left early due to cramp, and Nico Gonzalez might miss out with an ankle sprain.

Egypt hopes Karim Hafez will recover enough to start despite leaving the Australia game injured. Without him, they risk weakness against Messi, especially since backup Ahmed Fatouh is unavailable.
