Saudi Arabia shock Messi’s Argentina 2-1 in one of the most exciting match of the 2022 World Cup campaign so far.

Messi opened the scoring for Argentina in the first half from the spot after Paredez was pulled in the box, scoring his 7th World Cup goal.

The South American side had 3 goals disallowed in the first half for offside.

 

Saudi Arabia did not take long after the break to equalize as Saleh Al-Shehri came through for them.
They got their second just just five minutes later as Salem Al-Dawsari struck a beautiful curled shot pass Argentinian Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.
