We can bill it as Mohamed Salah versus Elijah Just as New Zealand's All Whites face Egypt at BC Place Vancouver! And on the undercard, Emam Ashour against kiwi captain Chris Wood - whatever way you slice it, this FIFA World Cup Group G clash is going to be special!
To preview the action, Goran, Iffy & Oli wonder how the New Zealanders can handle the pace of Omar Marmoush, and the absolute top-draw talent of Salah... is it going to be a tough day at the office for Libby Cacace, and if so, who will be enlisted to help?
Will there be any changes to the All Whites Starting XI? Did the likes of Max Crocombe in goal do enough to start again?
We hear from the midfield general Marko Stamenic as well, as Jacob & Goran sat down with him for McDonald's NZ - just a wee taster of the All In On Football series which you can see on the McDonald's NZ YouTube channel.
And we make our predictions... are we about to witness the All Whites first World Cup victory?
So who have you got: Egypt or the All Whites?

Spain has defeated Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final to become WORLD CHAMPIONS for the second time! On the surface, a solitary goal in extra time doesn't sound overly impressive or convincing, but dig a little deeper and you will see that this was not only a one-sided finale, but one of the most dominant World Cup campaigns, ever.
England has been defeated by Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Semifinals. And of course, the finger of blame is pointing directly at England's manager Thomas Tuchel. Were his defensive tactics in the final half hour of the clash 'cowardly' as has been reported in the UK media since the 2-1 loss?
