Those led by Lionel Scaloni fell incredibly in their debut against Arabia, which ended a historic streak.

After a preview plagued with nerves, the debut of the Argentine National Team finally arrived in the World Cup in Qatar, at the Lusail stadium. Those led by Lionel Scaloni made their presentation in the twenty-second world cup, which will be remembered with a bad image, since Saudi Arabia surprised the entire planet and beat the American champion 2-1. Although the Albiceleste started the match winning by 1 to 0, could not sustain the level and in a flurry, the Saudis prevailed.

There were some weak points in Argentina's performance, starting with Cristian Romero. Tottenham's central defender showed many shortcomings and gave too many advantages, which in a tournament of this magnitude are expensive. In both goals for the Asians he marked his rivals very badly and paved the way for their goals to come.

For this reason, he was replaced by Lisandro Martínez in the supplement. Rodrigo De Paul was also in debt, giving away several balls. Given this, Lionel Scaloni was very dissatisfied throughout the second half and quickly wanted to change things on the field of play.

That is why the coach changed and refreshed the team with the income of Julián Álvarez and Enzo Fernández, but none of this was enough to avoid a painful defeat in the World Cup debut. This forces those led by Lionel Messi to win their other two duels ahead, against Mexico next Saturday and then Poland on November 30.

The historic streak that Saudi Arabia broke

The Saudis took three historical points, since it is their first victory in the history of the World Cups against a power that already knows what it is to lift the trophy. In addition, there is the addition that they defeated a rival that had 36 undefeated games, the longest of the Argentine National Team in its history and was left at the door of the historical record, since Italy has 37 matches without defeat between 2018 and 2021.
