The Egyptian national team was subjected to a strong shock after the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) decided to deduct seven points from its score, following its draw in the last match against the Guinea-Bissau national team.
The Pharaohs’ score decreased from 1,509.64 points to 1,502.34 points, which significantly affects their position in the standings of their group in the World Cup qualifiers.
With their lead in the group with ten points, thanks to winning three matches and drawing one match, the Egyptian team was looking to strengthen their position at the top, but this new decision from “FIFA” puts them under additional pressure, especially with the end of the qualifiers approaching.
The Egyptian national team leads the standings of its group in the World Cup qualifiers with ten points, gained from winning three matches and drawing one match, while the Guinea-Bissau national team comes in runner-up with six points.
