If Golovin made through balls like this for United -- he'd fecking slaughtered on here and written off in his first game.

Not a bad game, tbh. Kudos to Pizzi. Saudi Arabia is showing quite decent ofensive organization for the level I was expecting. Same can't be said about the defensive organization, but that's another story.

O.K maybe not.:lol:

People think the England defence isn't great...Saudi back 4 is on a whole level of ineptness.

Nice goal, they attack with such speed and high tempo. More than decent game so far

Saudi are going to lose the 3 games without much trouble for their opponents.

Shite pass for the assist. Cheryshev did extremely well to take that.

Bad defending but that’s an amazing little dink to make the space.

Fantastic touch to set up the finish. Brilliant.

Arabias defence is always missing especially when they lose the ball. Mad.

Going to be a far bit of pressure on Egypt to beat Saudi by a few goals now as assume 2nd is decided on GD.
