New Zealand national football team All Whites is set to face Egypt in their upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026 group-stage match with Shaun Evans serving as the assistant video assistant referee. Evans, an Australian, was recently cleared by FIFA after being at the center of a controversy over an alleged White supremacist hand gesture. The incident occurred ahead of Germany's 7-1 win over Curacao on June 14. Evans had denied making the gesture, describing it as an involuntary, subconscious twitch. He will work alongside Mohammed Khamid in the match. The New Zealand national football team All Whites's match against Egypt is scheduled to take place on Sunday night. Evans's appointment comes after he was cleared by FIFA's independent disciplinary committee. The committee concluded that Evans had not breached its disciplinary code. The 38-year-old Evans had not been selected for any matches until being listed for the New Zealand-Egypt match. The match will be a crucial one for the New Zealand national football team All Whites as they look to advance in the tournament. Evans's experience as a video assistant referee will be valuable in the match. The New Zealand national football team All Whites's players will need to be focused and prepared for the match against Egypt. The team's coach will be looking to make strategic decisions to gain an advantage over their opponents. The match will be played in Vancouver, and the New Zealand national football team All Whites's fans will be eagerly watching the outcome.
