Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds Lusail Iconic Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Argentina and Saudi Arabia.
  • 5' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Nicolas Otamendi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' - Lionel Messi puts Argentina on the lead.
  • 15' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 20' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Saudi Arabia winning 100% of all matches.
  • 25' - It looks surprising Saudi Arabia does not make any changes. Nicolas Tagliafico has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 28' - GOAL! Lautaro Martinez scores on 28. Assisted by Alejandro Gomez
  • 33' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 33 minutes.
  • 38' - The travelling Saudi Arabia supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 43' - Argentina is showing some good football. However, Argentina are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' - The supporters are chanting for Nawaf Al-Abid. He replaces Salman Al-Faraj on 45 minute.
  • 49' - Goal! Saleh Al-Shehri scores his 1 goal in 7 matches.
  • 53' - What an equalizer from Salem Al-Dawsari!
  • 54' - What a strike from Salem Al-Dawsari! The score is 2-3.
  • 59' - Another change for Argentina made on 59 minute. Christian Romero leaves to be changed by Lisandro Martinez.
  • 60' - The whistle greets Alejandro Gomez as he departs to be replaced by Julian Alvarez.
  • 65' - Saudi Arabia looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Salem Al-Dawsari scoring 2 goals.
  • 67' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Abdulelah Al Malki.
  • 71' - Another change for Argentina made on 71 minute. Nicolas Tagliafico leaves to be changed by Marcos Acuna.
  • 75' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Ali Al-Boleahi.
  • 78' - Another change for Saudi Arabia made on 78 minute. Saleh Al-Shehri leaves to be changed by Sultan Al Ghanam.
  • 80' - The referee shows Saudi Arabia player a Yellow card on 80.
  • 82' - The referee shows Saudi Arabia player a Yellow card on 82.
  • 87' - Argentina seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 88' - Nawaf Al-Abid is having his name booked by the referee on 88.
  • 89' - The whistle greets Nawaf Al-Abid as he departs to be replaced by Abdulelah Al Amri.
  • 90' - Time for substitution for Saudi Arabia. Yasir Al Shahrani is replaced by Mohammed Al Burayk.
  • 90' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Mohammed Al Owais.
  • With this win, Saudi Arabia is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
