welcome to Sportstar’s live blog of the 2026 FIFA World Cup match between Belgium and Egypt, to be played at Seattle Stadium in the US. We bring you real-time updates and free coverage of the Group G match as Kevin De Bruyne takes on Mohammed Salah on the international stage.
Despite being some distance from the generation that finished third at the 2018 World Cup, Belgium travel to the US as one of the contenders to go deep in the competition.
Belgium should start the season with three points because on paper they are better across the entire field. Egypt, on the other hand, have little to lose and will sustain themselves by frustrating their opponent long enough for Omar Marmoush and Salah to take advantage of counter-attacking opportunities.
