Who else wants Cape Verde and Argentina to get to a penalty shootout.

Egypt will play either Argentina or Cape Verde in the next round. Let’s go Argentina

Would Cape Verde beating Argentina be one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history?

All fairytales come to an end. They are a good side. Always knew that from the way they performed in the WC qualifiers.

Ghana and Colombia ready to deliver us a World Cup
Classic. I foresee penalties but trust ghana to crumble under pressure

first half ended, Colombia Ghana

Colombia defeats Ghana 1-0. That's all for the round of 32 games. Moving on to the round of 16. Europe and South America still ahead of the curve

I never expected much from Black Stars anyway, they are about the only team in this world Cup who are worse than us.

Great game against England though.

You are welcome back home, Ghana, there's still space on the settee for you to sit down and watch.

So Africa represented by two predominantly Arab counties, Black Africa, who do una dis.

Kudos tó Cape Verde by the way, pure African resilience that they showed, not like those ones from Senegal and Ivory Coast.

Well, they tried but like I said earlier, out of 9 African countries, only 2 will qualify. Morocco and Egypt.

I said out of 9 African countries, only 2 will qualify to round of 16. And only 2 did qualify.

Respect to Cape Verde. I was expecting thrashing by Argentina.

In this round of 16, I think the host nations should excuse us, only if England knows what they are doing.

And my biggest game in this round is Brazil Vs Norway.

France is the likely favourite to win this world cup.

Nice one. May the best team win

Egypt Make History! Pharaohs Reach the FIFA World Cup Round of 16 for the First Time Ever

Egypt are through to the Round of 16 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup after defeating Australia 4-2 on penalties following a hard fought 1-1 draw.

Emam Ashour gave Egypt the lead in the 13th minute before an own goal by Mohamed Hany brought Australia level. After 120 minutes failed to produce a winner, the Pharaohs held their nerve in the penalty shootout to seal a historic victory.

This is the first time in Egypt's history that they have qualified for the World Cup Round of 16, making it a memorable day for Egyptian football.

Congratulations to Egypt, their players, coaching staff, and millions of fans around the world. A well deserved achievement.

Congratulations, Pharaohs!

The Egyptians don't even consider themselves Africans so I don't know why you're rooting for them

I'm proud of Cape Verde. They fought to the very end.

End of the road for ororo😭

But Messi just get easy one na
