Saudi Arabia fight until the end to win

Saudi Arabia took the lead through Ramzi and even doubled their advantage when Waleed scored six minutes into the game.

Goalkeeper Alejo reduced the deficit, Pantoja equalised two seconds before half-time, but at the start of the second half, Belal fired straight into the net, putting Guga Zloccowick’s team back in the lead.

Juan Ossa scored the only goal of the second period to bring the score level again, but with four minutes left in the match, Ramzi scored his second and secured the three points for the Arabs.
