The number of his participations with the first team reached 70 matches, scoring 28 goals, and he is the sixth top scorer in the history of the Egyptian national team.
Meteb's goal against the Algerian national team at Cairo International Stadium in the 2010 World Cup qualifiers is considered his most prominent goal after he scored a goal in the fatal time with a header that shook the entire Cairo Stadium.
