Hamza becomes Egypt's youngest World Cup player as Pharaohs hold Belgium

Hamza makes history on the biggest stage

Hamza Abdelkarim just became the youngest Egyptian to ever play at a World Cup finals. The Barcelona teenager stepped onto the pitch against Belgium and into the record books (1). Spanish press are already calling him the 'Pharaoh of Goals.' Barcelona are watching closely. For a nation still chasing its first World Cup win, the kid gave you something to feel good about.

Egypt hold Belgium in group opener
