History of the Pharaohs
The first Egyptian national football team was formed in 1920. This made them the first African football team to compete in the Summer Olympics in Belgium.

They lost their first match against Italy. Between 1958 and 1961, Egypt was part of a political union called the United Arab Republic. However, FIFA still counts the team's records as belonging to Egypt. The Pharaohs have played in three FIFA World Cups. They are also the most successful team in the Africa Cup of Nations, winning it seven times. Their most recent win was in 2010.
Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations
Egypt first played in the Africa Cup of Nations in 1957. They won their first game 2–1 against Sudan and then won the final 4–0.
In 1959, Egypt won the tournament again, staying undefeated. They reached the final in 1962 but lost. In 1963, they finished third. Egypt later withdrew from the tournaments in 1965 and 1968.
In 1970, Egypt finished third again. They failed to qualify in 1972 but hosted the tournament in 1974, finishing third once more. In 1976, they had a tough tournament, losing three games in a row for the first time.
Egypt returned in 1980, reaching the semi-finals but losing on penalties. In 1984, they finished fourth.
In 1986, Egypt hosted the tournament and won it for the third time! They had a difficult time in 1990 and 1992, losing all their group games.
In 1994, they reached the quarter-finals. Egypt won their fourth title in 1998, beating South Africa in the final.
In 2004, Egypt didn't make it past the group stage. But in 2006, when they hosted the tournament, they won it again! This started an amazing winning streak. Egypt also won the Africa Cup of Nations in 2008 and 2010. This made them the first team to win three titles in a row!
After this, they didn't qualify for the next three tournaments.
Egypt returned in 2017 and reached the final, but lost to Cameroon. In 2019, as hosts, they were knocked out in the Round of 16. In 2021, Egypt reached their 10th final, a new record, but lost to Senegal on penalties.
Egypt at the FIFA World Cup
Egypt has played in the FIFA World Cup three times: in 1934, 1990, and 2018. They were the first African country to qualify for the World Cup.

In 1934, they lost their only match 4–2 to Hungary. Abdulrahman Fawzi scored both goals for Egypt.

Egypt withdrew from or didn't enter many World Cup qualifiers over the years.
In 1990, Egypt qualified after beating Algeria. They were known for their strong defense and only scored one goal in the tournament. They drew 1–1 with the Netherlands and 0–0 with Ireland, then lost 1–0 to England.
On October 8, 2017, Egypt qualified for the 2018 World Cup. In the 2018 World Cup, they were in a group with Saudi Arabia, Uruguay, and hosts Russia. Egypt lost their first game 1–0 to Uruguay.
Mohamed Salah returned for the game against Russia and scored Egypt's first World Cup goal in 28 years, but they lost 3–1. In their final match against Saudi Arabia, Essam El Hadary became the oldest player in World Cup history at 45 years old.

Home Stadium
Egypt's home games were played at Cairo International Stadium since 1960. When it's being renovated, they play at Borg El Arab Stadium.
