Just before Egypt's match against Australia went to penalties, the players gathered together to watch Kylian Mbappé's penalty on a laptop brought by their trainer. This was to counter the goalkeeper change made by Australian manager Tony Popovic just before the penalty shootout. His replacement was Mathew Ryan, a former AZ player who is said to be strong against penalties. The footage seen by the Egyptian side was of Mbappé's penalty shot against Ryan against Levante. The Egyptian players used this video as a reference and all of them were successful, and Australia's Harry Souttar and Lucas Herrington failed, resulting in Egypt's victory.
