Argentina 🇦🇷 v Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 FIFA World Cup kick 10:00 ITV1 • ITVX • STV • STV Player

[Junior Birdman]

Saudi Arabia shouldn’t own the mags.

Well done Saudi Arabia for beating Argentina.

RTG in a nutshell.

That's football fans everywhere man.

 

[Mickdundee]

I can't think of a bigger shock in any World Cup tournament i've seen.

North Korea beating Italy in 1966? Most of the other “big shocks” involve players from so-called smaller nations who have players from big clubs (Senegal v France, S Korea v Italy etc) but this is 11 players from the Saudi league against Argentina.

Souness is one angry fking bloke like

 

[Ark]

Argie manager could get the chop after this defeat by the Saudis.

 

[Hulkster]

It's not unheard of across various sports for teams to have a shocking result in the group stages and go on to win the whole thing, but nonetheless that was terrible.

What they were doing in the first half constantly running offside is anyone's guess.

 

[Cannonfodder]

Fully deserved to win, sourness and the little diving cheat can go get stuffed Argentina this Argentina that before game... Keane Says it how it is was never a pen.

 

[nelford_safc]

That's not an incompatible position to take.

If Saudi Arabia has beaten us they’d be endless amounts of whining about human rights, they shouldn’t own the mags, gay rights etc etc. Suddenly it’s all ok cos they beat Messi

Under no circumstances should anyone be rooting for Saudi f***ing Arabia. In anything.

 

[look out piano]

Loving the result. On purely football terms anyway.

Yup me too, the Saudis played really well tbh and dug in

Butted in, butted in, butted in.

 

[chriswallace85]

Three offsides in the first half?? Legit?

Not sure what's wrong with that mind?

 

[Arkle]

Germany v Algeria 1982 never gets mentioned.

The farce/fix that followed does more often.

 

[cluffy]

Three offsides in the first half?? Legit?

I thought Messi was on
Think the other two were fair enough

 

[tenpins]

Yup me too, the Saudis played really well tbh and dug in

Are we allowed to give them any credit on here?

 

[Porters right boot]

would have said heads would roll if Saudi lost

Oh shut up man, the players don't go round lobbing people's heads off. Yes it's a horrific regime which nobody supports, but the honest man putting a shift in against the argies ain't to blame.

 

[Horatio Moustache]

He is. Am I right in thinking there's not a lot of love between him and Messi? Anyway, besides him, Poland are always a decent solid side, like the Swiss. You don't expect them to win the tournament but you have to be decent to beat them.

Szczęsny, Cash, Bednarek, Glik, Zielinski... not a bad team at all.

 

[I am Boss]

Oh shut up man, the players don't go round lobbing people's heads off. Yes it's a horrific regime which nobody supports, but the honest man putting a shift in against the argies ain't to blame.

Neither do the Russian players. Why aren't they allowed to compete?

Oh yes that was the year North Korea won the World Cup. Well thats what they told my North Korean uncle.

Well done Saudi Arabia for beating Argentina.

RTG in a nutshell.

Two things are totally different. The people of Saudi and the players have no say in the way their country is run. The people buying Newcastle do.
