Cristian Volpato drove a dipping long-range left-footer that clipped the top of the crossbar. The ball came back into play. Egypt survived before they had found their shape.<\/p>\n<p>They did not need long to recover. In the 13th minute, Egypt broke the deadlock from a set-piece. Omar Marmoush recovered a blocked ball and found Mohamed Hany on the right. Hany&#8217;s curling cross to the back post was perfect. Emam Ashour, completely unmarked, powered a header past the Australian goalkeeper. 1\u20130. His second goal of the tournament.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zee5.com\/sports\/football\/fifa-world-cup\/2026\/0-6-4z5974253\/0-2-5z5974716\/teams\/egypt\/egypt-squad\">Egypt<\/a> pressed for a second. Marmoush himself had the best chance \u2014 straight after half-time he raced clear on goal, but rolled his shot wide right when a goal looked certain. The lead stayed at one.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Australia_Level_%E2%80%94_and_Beach_Becomes_a_Hero\"><\/span><b>Australia Level \u2014 and Beach Becomes a Hero<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Australia found their equaliser through persistence and a slice of misfortune for Egypt. In the 55th minute, Aiden O&#8217;Neill whipped a dangerous free-kick into the six-yard box. Mohamed Hany \u2014 who had assisted the opening goal \u2014 could not get out of the way. His deflection wrong-footed his own goalkeeper. 1\u20131. An own goal, and Australia were level.<\/p>\n<p>From that moment, the match became a battle. Neither side could find a winner through 90 minutes. Extra time stretched the game further, and it was Patrick Beach \u2014 Australia&#8217;s young goalkeeper \u2014 who produced the defining moment of the entire 120 minutes. In the 90th minute of the second period of added time, Rami Rabia rose and powered a bullet header toward goal. Beach got one hand to it and tipped it over. The rebound fell to Mohamed Salah. Close range. Beach threw himself at it again and saved that too. A double save. Extraordinary reflexes. Australia were still alive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_119th-Minute_Gamble\"><\/span><b>The 119th-Minute Gamble<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Then came one of the most unusual decisions of this FIFA World Cup 2026\u2122. With one minute left in extra time, Australia manager Tony Popovic substituted Beach \u2014 the goalkeeper who had just made two saves to keep Australia in the match \u2014 for veteran captain Mathew Ryan. The logic: Ryan&#8217;s penalty-saving experience.<\/p>\n<p>It did not work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Shootout_Salahs_Panenka_Egypts_History\"><\/span><b>The Shootout: Salah&#8217;s Panenka, Egypt&#8217;s History<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Australia went first. Harry Souttar sent his penalty over the crossbar. Egypt&#8217;s Mahmoud Saber beat Ryan to his right. 0\u20131. Jackson Irvine slotted coolly to level the round \u2014 Rami Rabia responded by sending Ryan the wrong way. 1\u20132. Awer Mabil drove into the right corner \u2014 Mohamed Salah stepped up and chipped a Panenka down the middle. Nerveless. 2\u20133. Lucas Herrington struck the crossbar \u2014 and Hossam Abdelmaguid scored the decisive fourth. Egypt win. The bench spilled onto the pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Australia missed twice. Egypt missed none. Ryan, brought on specifically for this moment, could not save a single one.
