Lionel Messi had opened the scoring from the spot for Argentina. Messi had opened the scoring just ten minutes in with a cool penalty, and as Argentina put the ball in the net three more times before the halftime whistle – with everyone being ruled out for off-side – it was looking like one-way traffic.
However, goals from Saleh Al Shehri (48'), and Salem Al Dawsari (53') meant a historic win for the Saudis.
