Qatar 2022: Saudi Players Promised Rolls Royce Phantom Each For Beating Argentina

Saudi Arabia’s World Cup heroes will each be gifted a Rolls Royce by the country’s royal family after stunning Argentina in their first game.

Saudi Arabia, the second lowest ranked team at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, defeated Lionel Messi-led Argentina 2-1 in one of the biggest World Cup shocks on Tuesday in the opening match of the tournament.

Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud will present each of the players with an RM6 million Rolls Royce Phantom when they return from Qatar. It is the latest reward for the team’s seismic result.
