By beating favorite Argentina, Saudi Arabia caused a sensation and left no one indifferent in the football world. The Albiceleste even started to win (after Messi’s penalty, at 10′, who scored the seventh goal in the final stages of international competitions, equal to Ronaldo), saw three goals in eight minutes annulled and in the second half provided a turnaround – which was completed in the 53rd minute, deciding the final result.
