How this was checked

The broadcaster list is the Gulf Football Union’s own, as reported on 23 and 24 September 2026. It names nine rights holders, none of them Egyptian, and the union says it may add more.
Holding rights does not guarantee a match airs on every channel in every country. Match-by-match channels come from published TV guides and change during the tournament.
YouTube’s own listing for each AD Sports and Bahrain Sports match stream, checked 25 September 2026, includes Egypt. We could not test Shasha, Shahid or Shoof from inside Egypt, so those panels say what to check first.
Sources disagree on the semi-final kick-off times, so they are shown as to be confirmed until the union publishes them.
Kick-off times are Saudi time (UTC+3). Egypt is also on UTC+3 until its clocks go back at the end of October, after the final.
