The Pharoahs of Egypt picked up their first-ever win at a FIFA World Cup competition.

Mohamed Salah and co came from behind to beat New Zealand by three goals to one.

Egypt had failed to pick up a single win during their appearances in 1934, 1990, and 2018.

New Zealand struck first in the 15th minute when defender Finn Surman escaped his marker to head home from a corner kick.

Egypt looked far more aggressive and direct in the second-half after a difficult first-half.

Mostafa Ziko levelled the score with a clinical header before Mohamed Salah stepped up to show his class, drilling a low, precise shot to give the Pharoahs the lead.

Mahmoud Trezeguet’s power header past Max Crocombe secured a deserved lead for the Egyptians.
