U17 World Cup: Egypt eliminated, Switzerland advances to the Round of 16

A sad end to the competition for the Egyptian U17 team this Friday at the 2025 U17 World Cup. The young Pharaohs were defeated by their Swiss counterparts.

Egypt's U17 World Cup journey ended just short of the Round of 16. The team was beaten 3-1 this afternoon by Switzerland.

After the kickoff, the Egyptians were caught off guard when Switzerland opened the scoring through Nevio Sherrer (16'). Later, Ethan Bruchez (39') doubled the lead for his team.

Jill Stiel scored the third goal for Switzerland (58'; 3-0). The Pharaohs' only goal of the match was scored by Anas Roshdy (90’+1).
