Saudi Arabia royalty gives Rolls Royce to football players for their win against Argentina


On November 22, Saudi Arabia beat Argentina, which was one of the biggest surprises of this World Cup.

Lionel Scaloni's team hadn't lost in 36 games before the match, and Messi's penalty put them ahead.

However, after coach Hervé Renard's famous halftime talk, the Saudis turned the game around and won a famous game, which made the country's crown prince, Mohamed bin Salman, one of the richest people in the world, very happy.

The Saudi Arabian national football team is now hoping to make it to the round of 16 at the World Cup in Qatar.
While they celebrate this much-publicized win, the happy Crown Prince is going to give them a spectacular gift. The 37-year-old man from Jeddah is paying close attention to Saudi Arabia's World Cup performance in Qatar. He personally congratulated the team members for winning their first game against all odds, but he was so happy that he went one step further and gave them a gift worth almost $500,000 dollars.

CNN says that the Crown Prince has decided to give each of the players who beat Argentina a Rolls-Royce Phantom, whose basic model costs about $460,000.

This is to thank them for their performance and get them ready for their next game, which will be against Poland. With a good result in that game, Saudi Arabia could become the first team in history to make it to the round of 16.

MBS, as he likes to be called, is a big fan of the beautiful game and made last Wednesday a national holiday to celebrate "the victory of the Saudi National Team over the Argentine National Team in the World Cup."

In retrospect, the gift that Bin Salman is going to give them reminds me of the Rolls Royce that soccer player Saeed Al-Owairan supposedly got after scoring a great goal in the World Cup in the United States.
