The Korean national football team will face Egypt in the final 4th leg of the evaluation match in June. Heung-Min Son (Tottenham) and Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), who tied for the top scorer (23 goals) in the English Premier League in 2021-22, will face off.

The Korea Football Association (KFA) officially announced that "Korea and Egypt will play an evaluation match at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on June 14."

The KFA explained, "The friendly match against Argentina, originally scheduled for the 14th, failed. Therefore, KFA communicated directly with the Egyptian Football Association and made this match A."

Egypt failed to qualify for the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup finals, but it is expected to be the best card in terms of box office performance as Salah has a superb striker.

In addition, Son Heung-min and Salah's EPL scorer's pride battle is also interesting. Recently, Salah personally congratulated Son Heung-min through SNS.

Now, the schedule for the Korean national soccer team's 4 matches in June has been decided.

Starting with Brazil (Seoul) on June 2, Korea will face Chile (Daejeon) on the 6th, Paraguay (Suwon) on the 10th, and Egypt (Seoul) on the 14th.

A KFA official said, "The Egyptian Football Association has already announced the list of players from the overseas league to be convened during the A-match period, and Mohamed Salah is included in this match call up.
