In front of tens of thousands of passionate fans, Egypt’s internationals received a triumphant welcome in a festive atmosphere. The Pharaohs, who bowed out in the round of 16 after a widely praised performance against Argentina, were greeted as heroes by a packed stadium. Fireworks, entertainment, and a jubilant vibe accompanied the arrival of the players, who were cheered on by a full house.
