I was only watching last 30 minues + added time, Arabian keeper was very solid, especially that sliding tackle outside the box, cold blooded performance.


I caught the game at the start of the second half, I was literally thinking the same. The Saudi players were pressing the hell out of Argentina, they got into their heads and Argentina started to lose composure. I love results like these, because they can easily kick start a 'golden era' of football for Saudi.


We should just give them the world cup competition. They have lots of money and no human rights issues worth mentioning.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

It's definitely going to them next, Gianni was saying they are 'leading' the bid for 2030. (Personally though it would go to an African/South American/European country/region next). It'll be bought again no doubt (probably for the next few competitions to be fair). Gianni will give the WC to North Korea as well at some point, which will be interesting as I think that might be the one that would end up with a full investigation into FIFA.

The time of kickoff made it difficult especially for US west coasters.

What a result though, props to the saudis.
I woke up and was shocked it was only 1-0 and then just couldn’t believe what I was witnessing.

Saw the replay of the three var decisions for offsides. They all seemed correct. Argentina just got humbled

Loved the intensity of the Saudis. You could see that they are locked in 100%. The beauty of Football.

Argentina looked like someone pulled them of a barbecue to play today. They better bring their best game soon because Mexico will make them pi** blood. I hope Mexico and Saudis make it out of this group, would be great.

good decision by referee to not award penalty to Denmark. Accidental hand touch should not get penalty.

There are so many Mexicans. God bless them. I am rooting for them but they have not been in good form.
