Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Lusail Iconic Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - Saudi Arabia 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.
  • 10' - Lionel Messi puts Argentina on the lead.
  • 15' - The travelling Saudi Arabia supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 20' - Saudi Arabia looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Salem Al-Dawsari scoring 2 goals.
  • 25' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 28' - GOAL! Lautaro Martinez scores on 28. Assisted by Alejandro Gomez
  • 33' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 38' - It looks surprising Argentina does not make any changes. Nicolas Tagliafico has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 43' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 45' - Another change for Saudi Arabia made on 45 minute. Salman Al-Faraj leaves to be changed by Nawaf Al-Abid.
  • 49' - Goal! Saleh Al-Shehri scores his 1 goal in 7 matches.
  • 53' - Goal! Salem Al-Dawsari scores his 3 goal in 7 matches.
  • 54' - GOAL! Salem Al-Dawsari scores on 54.
  • 59' - Time for substitution for Argentina. Christian Romero is replaced by Lisandro Martinez.
  • 60' - Another substitution for Argentina to replace Alejandro Gomez by Julian Alvarez on 60 minute.
  • 65' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Argentina that had 25 games and scored 44 goals.
  • 67' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Abdulelah Al Malki.
  • 71' - Marcos Acuna is replacing Nicolas Tagliafico for the Argentina side.
  • 75' - Ali Al-Boleahi was booked on 75.
  • 78' - Saudi Arabia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Sultan Al Ghanam is hanging Saleh Al-Shehri on the field on 78 minute.
  • 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' - 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.
  • 88' - Saudi Arabia receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 88.
  • 89' - Another change for Saudi Arabia made on 89 minute. Nawaf Al-Abid leaves to be changed by Abdulelah Al Amri.
