BREAKING: Saudi Arabia has declared a public holiday following the team’s historic victory over Argentina at the World Cup in Qatar.
The oil-rich state stunned football fans across the globe with a remarkable 2-1 win over the pre-tournament favourites.
Lionel Messi, 35, had opened the scoring for Argentina in what is likely to be his last chance to win the World Cup before retirement. Saudi Arabia fans decided to celebrate by performing Ronaldo’s trademark ‘Siu’ celebration in front of upset Argentina supporters outside the Lusail Stadium. Ronaldo and Messi are commonly considered the best two current players in the world and their achievements are frequently compared, even this late into their respective careers.
