🏆👉 Argentina and Saudi Arabia are meeting for the first time in a World Cup game. Saudi Arabia win the FIFA World Cup Group C on Tuesday 22 November 2022 at the Lusail National Stadium in Lusail, Qatar.  Surely, this is an incredible victory for Saudi Arabia, as most expected Argentina to win. Saudi Arabia played a perfect defensive game, managing to score two goals with two shots on target. Argentina, who took the lead through Lionel Messi, had three goals disallowed in the first half including 2 by Lautaro Martinez. Argentina with a blow after goals from Al Shehri and Al Dawsari were unable to find the net. Argentina had better ball possession though unable to break down Saudi Arabia competing in their sixth World Cup. Saudi Arabia winning for the first time an opening game in a World Cup.

Previously, Argentina were unbeaten against Saudi Arabia in the previous four games outside this competition.  A stat that is broken today and a tough defeat for Argentina losing after 36 games.  Not a good time to lose.  It’s a tough hill and the next game will be against Mexico and then Poland.

Argentina entered the tournament as one of the favorites. A 5-0 victory over the United Arab Emirates extended their unbeaten run to 36 games under Lionel Scaloni: in that run La Albiceleste lifted the Copa America and the 2022 Finals.
