Saudi Arabia have provided the first major upset in the ongoing World Cup in Qatar.
They beat phenomenally favoured Argentina 2-1, shattering the prediction that the Lionel Messi’s side would roast them.
Argentina got their goal early, via a penalty kick by Messi.
They got three more goals but they were ruled out as offside products.

The highly disciplined and determined – even if rough and hard-tackling – Saudi came back in the second half, with their second goal having the potential to be one of the best in the tournament.
The Saudi’s victory means more than a World Cup feat as it also stopped Argentina’s long run of victories.
