I started viewing this game late and am surely wondering just how did or is Saudi pulling this off. Beating Argentina 2 goals to 1, its definitely something you don't get to see everyday and certainly not what was expected in this match. The Saudi sides play so far has been good and they seem to be taking very calculated risk. Argentina have been so good through the qualifiers and the matches that preceeded this Saudi fixture but, they don't seem to be getting it any easier.
Argentina is looking for every minute to get some good chance and more have certainly come up but the Saudi defence are just too good. I cam imagine this being so hard for Messi to take in.

What a game for Saudi arabia team and for a moment you think the players in green shirt are Argentina, this is the first surprise of the event to see such a performance from a very low expected team in the group to play like this.
Difficult to consider Argentina as favorites for this World cup as they have not convincely dominated Saudia Arabia in the game. I am very proud of Saudia Arabia; they have been very bold playing against a big team like Argentina. It is unbelievable that they have come from a goal down to be leading by two goals. Argentina can get a draw, but it is very unlikely that they win this game with the way Saudia Arabia are defending their goal. A big surprise for everyone that expected Argentina to win this game easily. 
That's quite a match.
As if it didn't end, Saudi Arabia did great, they fought like lions. they didn't break after a not very clear penalty in the beginning. 3 goals from offsides from argentina is also strong. If it wasn't for the WAR, 2 out of 3 probably would have counted.
In general, the defeat of Argentina is likely to put an end to their chances of winning the World Cup.

Argentina is going to lose the match. In the first half we saw the dominance of Argentina. Attacked a lot. They scored four goals, but three goals were disallowed for offside. This is their misfortune. But Saudi Arabia surprised everyone by scoring two goals at the beginning of the second half. 70 minutes have passed. Saudi Arabia leads 2-1. Argentina is playing well. But can't score. As Saudi Arabia is now playing completely defensive. It has become more difficult for Argentina to score. But I think the match will be a draw.
Those who bet on Saudi Arabia to win or draw today will benefit greatly today. It was unimaginable that Saudi Arabia would score points or win this match.
Amazing. Amazing.
2 goals were immediately replied by Saudi Arabia in approximately 5 minutes. The spirit of the Saudi Arabian players immediately increased after the first goal scored by Al-Shehri.
It looks like many bets will fail for those who place for Argentina. Indeed Argentina has a number of star players who played at big clubs, but Saudi Arabia saw a lot of changes in the match against Argentina under Herve Renard, the former coach of the Moroccan national team.
62 minutes already in the second half. What happened and what next?
What game did Saudi Arabia show? This is an incredible game. Never expected that in today's game. It is a shame for Argentina that they are going to lose to Saudi Arabia.

so did anyone ended up taking Saudi Arabia to win against Argentina for 23x odds? If anyone did then this is looking pretty good right now though. I bet most people ended up taking Argentina as a clear favourites to win but this is really what makes the World Cup really interesting. Anyway, the odds for Saudi Arabia to win and under 3.5 goals is still over 2x odds for now in case anyone wants to take live bet
That's quite a match.

Never expected Saudi to score goals against Argentina let alone expect them to lead, i have no idea what is going on and with the way things are going Saudi could draw the match and if so majority of the bets placed are for Argentina to win and even i am in two minds whether to cash out my bets. If they are able to defeat Argentina it would be the biggest upset. Twenty minutes left in the match and Argentina needs some magic to win this match from this situation.It looks like many bets will fail for those who place for Argentina.

Edit: Sadly i have to cash out at a huge loss, trusted Argentina to win easily against a team like Saudi .
Argentina 1 VS 2 Saudi Arabia
What a game for Saudi arabia team and for a moment you think the players in green shirt are the Argentina, this is the first surprise of the event to see such a performance from a very low expected team in the group to play like this. The second goal is very impressive and Argentina should really change the way they playing or will lose the match. In the meanwhile I'm putting more money on Argentina to win this strong match
The defenders of argentina has been playing so bad during the match. it seems like that argentina has very low chance to win the match. Im sure that argentina can make it becomes draw. The match is still happening right now. Saudi arabia is very offensive despite the fact if it was getting low ball possession compared with argentina. It doesn't matter how many ball possession owned by argentina as long as saudi arabia can win the match and that would be enough to win the match against argentina.

This is a very hard situation for argentina caused by it must make the condition become draw.

So much for the title favourites. I was very surprised that Saudi Arabia were able to score two goals after half-time. I had no doubt that Argentina would win easily and that Leonel Messi would score in this game. But so far only the latter has come true. I am no longer confident of a win for Argentina.

At the moment, Saudi Arabia is Argentina I never imagined that Argentina would score with such a team. Because it became a strong team and lost goals with the normal team. This is never expected by the Argentina team.
Argentina started the match fast. The pace of the match is also very good. It's going to be an enjoyable match than I expected. 
Saudi Arabia have no chance in this match. But they are trying to struggle against Argentina. Iran conceded 6 goals yesterday. I was expecting a similar performance from Saudi Arabia before the match. But Saudi Arabia seems to be a stronger team than Iran. Also, their offside tactics are very successful. 3 goals scored by Argentina were canceled due to offside. Of course, Saudi Arabia's offside tactic cannot be successful forever. In my opinion, Argentina will win this match differently. A parenthesis also needs to be opened for VAR. They are very fast today. I really liked their performance. They make football beautiful.
Indeed, the appearance of the Argentine squad is always highly anticipated in the world cup and will definitely present a beautiful match. I just got home from work and didn't have time to watch the first half, when I saw information on Instagram that Argentina's 3 goals were disallowed in the first half all for offside. In the second half maybe Argentina will be a little annoyed and will attack even more, seeing that England won with a big score yesterday, of course Argentina will also do the same thing by scoring lots of goals, especially their opponents are Middle Eastern countries.

Argentina scored three goals in the first half, but unfortunately two goals were disallowed by the referee for offside. So far, Saudi Arabia has been good enough to get Argentinian players caught offside, so seven times Argentine players were caught offside and the referee disallowed two goals. Argentina did dominate the match, but the final finish was not so perfect. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia is still unable to develop its game, the midfield is not running in controlling the game, fortunately their lowest players are still consistently guarding the penalty box area, Although several times Lionel Messi, Lautaro Martinez and Angel Di Maria were not guarded and almost scored goals.
Saudia Arabia knows they have to be aggressive but they gave too many freekicks in close to the box and that is what cost them the penalty which gave the Argentine side an early lead. I learned there is a new tech in the ball that helps to detect offside quickly and easily. VAR is making this game pretty boring, and uninteresting. Saudi Arabia is gave them a tough time and since Messi's penalty, the Argentine side hasn't had any shot on target. First half was largely controlled by Argentina. 
Argentina VS Saudi Arabia
The match between Argentina and Saudi Arabia has just started. I am quite optimistic about Argentina's performance. Argentina's goal is to be champions. And maybe this is Messi's last World Cup. So everyone wants to see the title in the hands of Messi. Saudi Arabia is not a strong opponent. On the other hand, the Argentina team is in good form. I forget the last time they lost a game.
Argentina will play in a 4-2-3-1 formation today. Martinez is first in line. Next in line are Gomez, Messi and Di Maria. I think this formation will be effective enough. I expect Argentina to win 2-0 in this match

Argentina vs Saudi Arabia is a football match today. Argentina scored a goal against Saudi Arabia. Although Argentina is a very strong team, the number of Argentine websites with normal teams is high. Because he is the world's best football star Lionel Messi He was also offside. But the game means the result of the game till the time.

Ohh my god ... Messi offside
Ohh my goodness Martinez offside
Agaaaain offside Martinez...
Already Argentina 7 times offside...
How many more times will I see offside today?
Can Messi celebrate Hatrick!!!!
Comments please 🥺🥺
I saw that Martinez was often caught offside, Argentina played too enthusiastically to score with more goal targets from the start so the game was out of control and Martinez was often caught offside when everyone was happy to think it was a goal but it was annulled by the referee for offside, I think Argentina needs the second half play more calmly and in control so that you are not often caught offside and produce goals Ohh my goodness Martinez offside
Agaaaain offside Martinez...
Already Argentina 7 times offside...
How many more times will I see offside today?
Can Messi celebrate Hatrick!!!!
Comments please 🥺🥺
Here I agree with you most of the time Senegal were in better control and their counter attacking style were also amazing as the match were playing my feeling was today we are going to have upset, but Senegal were unlucky with good performance from Dutch goalkeeper also help them for preventing having a goal but with this match now I have feeling we are going to have tough match between Ecuador vs Senegal because winner is surely going to be qualified for the second round Qatar is surely going to lose their all matches with their current performance.
Most of the Asian teams are going to lose their matches, specially teams from Gulf region and Middle East because they are not good in quality and skills are also not as they need to compete in this event.
I would say that the result is what matters. Sure, Senegal may have played well, but from here on out, I am sure Netherlands will beat Gatar and Ecuador with ease, and Senegal will too, which means that we are going to see Netherlands finish at the top, and Senegal at the second place just like everyone imagined.Most of the Asian teams are going to lose their matches, specially teams from Gulf region and Middle East because they are not good in quality and skills are also not as they need to compete in this event.
I feel like Netherlands will have easy time beating their opponents on last 16 as well, because seconds of most groups will not be that much great, whereas Senegal might get eliminated because they will face a group first and most of them are favourites. So all in all, it's clear that this game changed so much of the tournament for both teams at the same time.
Saudi Arabia should play long passes like Argentina team is playing Because Saudi is playing small cards, this kind of game can never be played with Argentina. Because to play with Argentina, Saudi Arabia must attack, but Saudi Arabia has not been able to attack so far. Saudi Arabia has very few experienced players due to which Saudi Arabia is not able to attack as much. Ball receive Argentina 67% and the remaining 33% Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia should play better and cleanly because if they play well and perform well they can score goals.
The main man again has opened the goals for his country, giving them an early lead into the match.
Like I said "a walk in the park " the Saudi Arabia team are truly no match for the South American power house possessing such world class talent in their squad. Argentina are good favourite in going away with this year World Cup having played at the final in 2014 but was narrowly defeated by the German.
I think their star man would be wanting to make a glamorous exist in international football with collecting this years trophy and currently the team as a whole has all it takes to do it.
I think we will be seeing more goals in the match as the game progress and certainly am betting on Lionel Messi to get an assist after scoring the first goal
