The Egypt national football team, known as the Pharaohs, is the most successful national side in African football history. Based in Cairo, the team plays its home matches at various stadiums, including the Cairo International Stadium. The Egyptian Football Association governs the team, which wears the iconic red, white, and black colors. Egypt's history is decorated with glory, most notably a period of unprecedented dominance in the Africa Cup of Nations, winning three consecutive titles in 2006, 2008, and 2010. This golden generation featured stars like Mohamed Aboutrika and Essam El-Hadary. The modern era is defined by the global superstar Mohamed Salah, who leads a talented squad that continues to challenge for continental honors and seeks to return to the FIFA World Cup. With a fanatical nationwide following, the Pharaohs carry the weight of a football-mad nation's expectations.
