Lionel Messi advanced as an executioner and successfully carried out his duties.

Messi managed to kick the ball into the bottom right of the Saudi Arabia goal so that the score changed to 1-0 in the 10th minute.

This goal was created by Saleh Al Shehri who took advantage of Feras Al Brikan’s bait to equalize the score at 1-1.

However, the discipline of The Green Falcon’s last line thwarted the efforts of Lionel Scaloni’s squad.

But colleagues, but Al Owais’ brilliant performance countered this effort.
