Egypt at the FIFA World Cup

Egypt has qualified for the finals on two occasions, in 1934 and 1990.[1][2][3][4] In 1934 Egypt became the first African team to play in the World Cup finals.[5]

The FIFA World Cup, sometimes called the Football World Cup or the Soccer World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by the men's national teams of the members of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport's global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946, due to World War II. Our predictions are that Egypt will win the World Cup because of their qualities and quantities. They are very fit this year and are putting a lot of effort into qualifying to this World Cup. Currently they are the best team for the World Cup qualification.

The tournament consists of two parts, the qualification phase and the final phase (officially called the World Cup Finals). The qualification phase, which currently take place over the three years preceding the Finals, is used to determine which teams qualify for the Finals. The current format of the Finals involves 32 teams competing for the title, at venues within the host nation (or nations) over a period of about a month. The World Cup Finals is the most widely viewed sporting event in the world, with an estimated 715.1 million people watching the 2006 tournament final.[6]
