From Saudi Arabia’s stunning upset to tie results between Denmark and Tunisia and Poland and Mexico, here are all of the highlights from Day 3.
In what was undoubtedly the biggest upset of the tournament so far, Argentina faced a stunning defeat at the hands of Saudi Arabia. While Lionel Messi — who has been dubbed the ‘Messiah’ by ardent fans — scored a goal in the first half, even his divine skills weren’t sufficient to deliver his team to victory, as Saudi Arabian players Al-Shehri and Al-Dawsari bagged goals in the second half to secure the game.
However, the player of the match was undoubtedly Mohammed Al Owais as he made FIVE saves against the powerful Argentina offence.

The second match of the day saw Denmark taking on Tunisia. The match was quite evenly fought, which is why it ended up being a draw. The high-octane match also saw Denmark being denied a late penalty that could have potentially led to their victory.

Just like the match between Denmark and Tunisia, the fixture between Mexico and Poland ended up being quite evenly matched as well. The dynamics in Group C have become quite fascinating now with Argentina’s stunning upset and Mexico and Poland’s draw.

The last match saw France take on Australia and unlike other fixtures of the day, this one was not evenly matched. As Australia went down to France 4-1, the man of the match was clearly Olivier Giroud who scored two exciting goals. Other goals were scored by Adrien Rabiot and Kylian Mbappé, France is now leading the tally in Group D.
