The Egypt World Cup 2026 squad is shaping up. Led by Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush, two of the Premier League's brightest stars, they may spring a surprise or two in Canada, Mexico and the United States next summer. November saw them take on two fellow sides who qualified for the tournament next summer but now they have a break, with two more competitions available to win before heading off to North America.
"She was really enjoying it and the step up. Unfortunately she picked up this small injury so that's disappointing, mainly for her," said Wiegman. "That's the way it is and it's good she had that opportunity to train at least. That's the good thing about it - but I just hope she gets fit again really quickly and is available for Liverpool soon."

Isago Silva, son of ex-Brazil defender Thiago Silva, has signed his first professional contract with his father's former club Chelsea. Also a defender, 17-year-old Isago Silva joined the Chelsea academy along with his younger brother Iago Silva when their father moved to Stamford Bridge from Paris St-Germain in 2020. Thiago Silva, now 41, left the Premier League club in 2024 for Fluminense after winning the Champions League, Uefa Super Cup and Club World Cup in 2021, but Isago Silva has remained with the Blues' academy.
The mood was really negative. It's not just that they changed the coach. We also had this election at the very beginning, so everybody was nervous about that. With the election, it can also influence the staff and players, so, for me, it was a completely new experience. The election day was also a game for us, so it was pretty hard to be honest. But now everything has settled down, we have a good team, and we have found our rhythm.
A burst down the right from Omar Haktab Traore and a cross to the front post was met by fellow substitute Stefan Schimmer, and a wobbling Union had stumbled. The away side sensed the moment and a corner from Arijon Ibrahimovic, swung in just after the announced four minutes of stoppage time in moments added by Schimmer's goal and its aftermath, was headed in by another sub, Jan Schoppner, to spark pandemonium.
Say what you will about New York City FC missing key pieces in Saturday's Eastern Conference Final, but one thing is certain: past versions of Inter Miami still would've crumbled under the weight of Pascal Jansen's understaffed attack. Even without star Costa Rica striker Alonso Martínez bearing down on them, it's easy to picture Inter Miami from, say, the spring when they lost four games in five across all competitions, giving up a sloppy goal and falling short of MLS Cup. Only seven teams allowed more non-penalty xG in the regular season than Miami, according to FBref.
Kenny Dalglish's 1977 move from Celtic to Liverpool was a momentous deal, as the Reds broke the British transfer record by spending 440,000 on the Scotsman as their replacement for Hamburg-bound Kevin Keegan. During his time with the Bhoys, Dalglish had won four Scottish titles and four Scottish Cups, as he netted 173 goals for club during his nine years at Celtic Park.
Marking their return from November's international break with a collapse at Elland Road as they suffered a 2-1 loss at the hands of Aston Villa, Leeds have now lost all of their previous four consecutive Premier League appearances by an aggregate score of 11-4. Facing what looks set to be another heavyweight challenge here, it should also be noted that the relegation scrappers have lost six of their last seven top-flight showdowns.
Roma's manager has no connection to any of this, yet one Argentinian broadcaster included an old photo of him in their coverage. The segment for Telefe Noticias showed Gasperini's face between those of the accused and the deceased. A silly meme, circulated by football fans on social media to imply some (dubious) resemblance, confused as being authentic. The online version of the video was quickly taken down from YouTube, but not before it created a fresh set of headlines back in Italy.
It was Tadeo Allende, the 26-year-old Argentine only at Inter Miami for one year, on a loan from Spanish club Celta de Vigo, who scored a hat trick in the 5-1 win over New York City FC to send Inter Miami to its first MLS Cup Final. In 31 games during the regular season, Allende scored 11 goals. In the playoffs, he has scored eight.
Luis Enrique called it their worst match of the season and a very bad night. His players created very little, although it might have been a very different story had the Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara been sent off for his lunge on Lucas Chevalier early in the first half. The France international said his career could have taken a turn and that he considered himself lucky to continue after the tackle that was sanctioned with a yellow, rather than a red.
Germany now have an indication of who they might play at next year's FIFA World Cup. FIFA have confirmed the official draw pots ahead of next week's draw on December 5th. Luckily for Germany, their last November window's string of wins was enough to put Germany up to 9th in the FIFA World Rankings, which was just enough to seal the last spot in Pot 1.
A change of formation, from 4-2-3-1 to 3-4-2-1, by manager Jimmy Thelin has led to a run of five clean sheets in seven domestic games and a rise from bottom spot to seventh place, three points off the top six. Their newly found steel at the back means only Celtic and Rangers have taken more points over the past eight league matches.
Jhon Duran's last-gasp header rescued a point for Fenerbahce, who snatched a dramatic 1-1 draw with Galatasaray in the Intercontinental Derby. The former Aston Villa forward struck in the fifth minute of stoppage time, cancelling out Leroy Sane's first-half strike in Istanbul. Leaders Galatasaray were aiming to go four points clear at the Turkish Super Lig summit, and looked the more dangerous of the two sides during the first half.
Former Manchester United and Real Madrid striker Javier "Chicharito" Hernández suffered the unenviable fate of missing a crucial penalty in the game that saw his side's Liga MX campaign end on Sunday. Hernández, who made 103 appearances for United, scoring 37 times before a loan spell at Madrid, was tasked with the all-important penalty that would put Guadalajara ahead late on in their quarterfinal second leg tie against Cruz Azul.
Chelsea have made an offer to sign Newcastle's exciting winger Harvey Barnes. That is according to the latest from Spanish outlet Fichajes, which claims that the Blues are now going head to head with Manchester United for the signature of the Newcastle star. As per the report, both Chelsea and Man United have made an offer worth 53m for the attacker. Chelsea see Barnes as the perfect long-term signing to a team full of exciting youngsters.
Not featuring since the end of September, Japanese international Kaoru Mitoma remains on the sidelines with an ankle issue. Likewise, still waiting to make a maiden appearance of the season, Solly March is still dealing with a long-term knee injury. Coming off the bench and getting on the scoresheet away at Nottingham Forest over the weekend, 19-year-old Stefanos Tzimas will get some more minutes under his belt. Already notching seven Premier League goals so far this season, veteran striker Danny Welbeck will lead the line
