Playing a risky high defensive line, the athletic Saudi Arabian side rode on its luck in the first half when three times Argentina had the ball in the net, only to be denied by offside calls on all occasions.

But in a chaotic start to the second half, the Saudi Arabians swarmed all over Lionel Scaloni’s team and scored twice as the Arab nation beat the South Americans for the first time in five attempts.
