Which team is better, Saudi Arabia or Argentina?

Argentina is great.

Argentina is recognized as a traditional strong team. It won the World Cup twice in 1978 and 1986, and also won the World Cup runner-up three times. Last year, in the America's Cup final, Argentina beat the host Brazil by 1-0. The "Pampas Eagle" led by Messi has become one of the favourites to win the World Cup with the Copa America champion team as its team.

Argentina is not only strong on three fronts, but also united under the leadership of coach Scalogni. Messi likes playing for the national team very much. The only fly in the ointment is that key Argentine players, including winger Di Maria, striker Dibala, midfielder Laucelso, midfielder paredes and central defender Romero, are all plagued by injuries.

Although Saudi Arabia is a traditional strong team in Asia, its competitiveness in the World Cup is obviously insufficient. The last time I qualified in the World Cup group was 1994, and it was also the only time in Saudi Arabia's history that I advanced to the World Cup 16. After missing 20 10 and 20 14 World Cups in succession, Saudi Arabia returned to the final in the last World Cup, but was defeated by the host Russia 0-5 in the opening match, and finally ranked third in the group with 1 win and 2 losses.

Argentina's record of Saudi Arabia

After 20 years, the World Cup returned to Asia again, and the host became Qatar. Saudi Arabia, which is also a Gulf country, has half the benefits of home court. In this World Cup group match, Saudi Arabia has faced Argentina, Poland and Mexico one after another, and it is very difficult to make a difference. The historical record of Argentina vs Saudi Arabia is 0: 0 and 3: 1. Argentina and Saudi Arabia have only met twice since the 1990s.
