Sport pundits took on Twitters to react to shocking victory Saudi Arabia win over Argentina.
Saudi Arabia -a team ranked 51st in the world -shockingly beat Lionel Messi's Argentina on Tuesday thanks to a heroic second half performance.
Argentina were one of the favourites to win the World Cup heading into the tournament in Qatar, but were shocked by a spirited Saudi Arabia at the Lusail Iconic Stadium.
Messi kickstarted his World Cup in the way many expected inside the opening 10 minutes, converting a penalty kick with ease.
The talk on Twitter was not about Messi's opening World Cup goal however, rather what the penalty was given for.
After a VAR review, Rodrigo De Paul was adjudged to have been dragged down inside the box, in a way not too dissimilar to how Harry Maguire was in England's game on Monday November 14, 2022.
