Egypt edge Australia on penalties to reach World Cup last 16

Egypt defeat Australia 4-2 on penalties to reach the World Cup last 16 for the first time, setting up a clash with Argentina. Hossam Abdelmaguid scored the winning penalty as Egypt made history by beating a dogged Australia 4-2 on penalties to reach the World Cup last 16 for the first time since 1934 on Friday. A tense affair in which Egypt and their off-colour captain Mohamed Salah wasted the better chances had ended 1-1 after 120 minutes in Texas.Emam Ashour scored in the 13th minute for Egypt, before teammate Mohamed Hany became the first player with two own-goals in the same World Cup tournament, allowing Australia to even the score. "It's history," said Salah, who was emotional after his country won a World Cup knockout game for the first time.

Australia coach Tony Popovic threw on experienced goalkeeper Mathew Ryan for the penalty shootout in a last-gasp gamble. Shooting towards the Egypt fans and whistles raining down, defender Harry Souttar blazed the first penalty over to put the Socceroos on the immediate backfoot.Popovic's side had nearly taken the lead with less than five minutes gone as Cristian Volpato – who switched to Australia from Italy on the eve of the World Cup – rattled the top of the crossbar.
