That was an absolute defensive masterclass from the Saudi’s.
Let Argentina have the ball deep. They won every header going and when they needed to put their foot through it they absolutely fucking booted the living daylights out of it (take note Swindon)
Although it was offside in the build up that header off the line was immense.
…I know the debate about Ronaldo and Messi is endless but I’ve always felt Ronaldo has a much more galvanising effect on the players around him where as Messi just struts around trying to be Messi.
If it wasn’t for the fact he’s so short - you could have mistaken him for Iandolo today.
Glad I stayed up to watch that

It's great isn't it. Can't think of any scenario where Argentina v Saudi Arabia would be of interest to non-partisan fans other than at a world cup. Well deserved win in the end.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

Let’s also not lose sight of the fact Saudi Arabia are ranked 31 places below Iran - who we despatched with ease yesterday

fair fucks. The Saudis were excellent in the second half.
Will Argentina go out? I doubt it. But makes them sweat a bit

Doesn't that just prove that the ranking system is bollocks, Iran, USA and Wales all top 20 and to date all looked pretty useless. Iran yesterday made RSA look like Brazil today. fair fucks. The Saudis were excellent in the second half.

I was dipping in and out of it, but once they got a foot in the game they looked incredibly organised and strong, on the top of the high quality shit housing as the game went on.

Not having a go, but do you have to keep putting the boot into Iandolo.

No idea, the way they played yesterday I was not convinced some of the Iran players had actually played football before. But they are a lot braver than many players in their convictions https://twitter.com/NasimiShabnam/status/1594798580983799818

At least United have sacked Ronaldo to give us some afternoon content.
