One of the biggest surprises of the year was Saudi Arabia’s 2-1 victory over Argentina at the Lusail Stadium in Qatar. Argentina is a two-time FIFA World Cup champion. The loss suffered by Argentina was dubbed the biggest shock in World Cup history.
Many people expected Argentina, led by football great Lionel Messi, to easily overcome Saudi Arabia because there were just 48 places separating the two countries in the world rankings. Argentina, one of the favorites to win the 2022 competition, has gone three years without a loss.
The players and all of Saudi Arabia’s citizens were ecstatic. According to a source in the UK-based Express, Saudi Arabia’s royal family will present each of its players with a Rolls Royce in appreciation for the incredible victory. When the athletes return from Qatar, Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud is rumored to give each of them an RM6 million Rolls Royce Phantom.
