Spain will face Salah’s Egypt three days after the ‘Finalissima’

The Spanish National Team will face Egypt next on March 30 in a friendly international match, a match that will be held at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in Qatar starting at 6:00 p.m. (Spanish time), three days after playing the ‘Finalissima’ against Argentina, also in Qatar, although at the Lusail Stadium.

The only precedent between both teams dates back to June 3, 2006 when both teams met at the Martínez Valero stadium in Elche with a 2-0 victory for Spain with goals from Raúl González and José Antonio Reyes. Now, the Pharaohs are led by Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush, and are among the four African Cup semi-finalists.

The Ahmed bin Ali Stadium, with a current capacity of 45,000 spectators, hosted up to seven matches in the last World Cup, including one in the round of 16.
