00:00Mo Salah had been waiting and just when it felt like the World Cup might pass him by,
00:06the Egyptian king reminded everyone why he remains football royalty.
00:15New Zealand were dreaming of a famous upset. They let deep into the second half and looked
00:21set to make history. Then Salah appeared. One quick exchange, one sharp finish and Egypt was
00:28suddenly on course for a first ever World Cup victory. But if Salah remains football royalty,
00:36Spain may have found the game's next prince. Lamine Yamal is playing like he belongs on this
00:41stage. The teenager scored his first World Cup goal as Spain swept Saudi Arabia aside. Every touch
00:47brought excitement, every run carried danger. The debate is no longer whether Yamal is special,
00:55it's just how far he can go. While the stars grabbed headlines, the goalkeepers kept stealing
01:01the spotlight. Iran's Ali Reza Abiyaran Van produced a remarkable save to frustrate Belgium. It was the
01:09kind of stop that changes games, inspires teammates and leaves fans shaking their heads in disbelief.
01:16And then there was Carpe Verde. Again, the Blue Sharks simply refused to follow anyone else's script.
01:22They held Uruguay to a dramatic draw and suddenly, a place in the last 32 feels within reach.
01:28Even Marcelo Bielsa could not find an answer. Uruguay escaped with a point, but Carpe Verde,
01:34once again, played without fear. Another World Cup day, another reminder of why we love this tournament.
01:41Salah delivered, Yamal Dazzle and the underdogs refused to back down. Bob Holmes and Amardeep Gill, FMT.
