Mahmoud Hassan “Trezeguet,” the playmaker for the Egyptian national team, has equaled the goal tally of former Pharaohs coach Hassan Shehata, reaching a total of 16 goals for the national team and surpassing the legendary Hossam Hassan “The Fox.”
Trezeguet now stands alongside the esteemed company of Hassan Shehata, Taher Abouzaid, Emad Soliman, Taha Ismail, and Hossam Abdel-Raheem, although he has the potential to significantly increase his goal count with the national team.
His achievement in scoring against Cape Verde marks a new record for Trezeguet, who has consistently found the back of the net in three consecutive Africa Cup of Nations tournaments.
Notably, he scored in Zimbabwe during the 2019 edition and against Morocco in the 2021 tournament.
