Salah and Yamal Set for First Encounter in Egypt vs. Spain Friendly
Spanish media have reported that the national teams of Spain and Egypt will meet in a friendly match on March 30, 2026, in Qatar, as both teams prepare for the 2026 World Cup.
According to the well-known program El Chiringuito on the platform X, the match will feature Egyptian star Mohamed Salah of Liverpool and promising Spanish talent Lamine Yamal of Barcelona, making it a highly anticipated event for football fans worldwide.
The game is scheduled just three days after Spain's clash with Argentina in the "Finalissima" at Lusail Stadium in Doha, where the European champions will face the South American champions.
It is worth noting that the last friendly match between Egypt and Spain took place in 2006, ending with a 2-0 victory for Spain. The Egyptian national team recently qualified for the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, after missing out on the 2022 tournament in Qatar.
