The winning nation has declared a public holiday Wednesday to celebrate.
Through the first two days of the tournament it appeared as though the unusual timing and compressed format of the 2022 World Cup would mean that raw talent would rule the day. Qatar was hapless against Ecuador in the tournament opener, falling behind 2–0 early and never really troubling its opponents in a game thought to be their best chance at getting a World Cup win.
An Iran team entering the tournament with a host of distractions looked inert in its 6–2 loss to England. Senegal, more evenly matched against the Netherlands despite missing star Sadio Mané, played the Dutch even for 80 minutes before succumbing to two late goals.The early match Tuesday between Argentina and Saudi Arabia would not have been anyone’s guess to break this trend. Argentina entered the game on a 36-match unbeaten streak.
