Saudi Arabia's World Cup heroes to be given luxury ROLLS ROYCES in plush gift after shock win over Argentina | The Sun

SAUDI ARABIA'S World Cup heroes will receive ROLLS ROYCES in reward for their sensational victory over Argentina.

The team known as the Green Falcons produced one of the biggest shocks in the tournament's history on Tuesday when they beat the Copa America champions.


Lionel Messi put Argentina ahead from the spot, but Saudi Arabia struck twice in quick succession to end their 36-game unbeaten run.

As a result, each player will be treated to a Rolls Royce by Saudi Arabian Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud.

This comes after King Salman marked the win with a public holiday in the country.

Remarkably, this isn't the first time this type of thing has happened.
