On November 22, Saudi Arabia made history with Alshehri and Aldawsari getting a 2-1 win against Argentina at the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.

In celebration of the win, the government announced a public holiday the next day so the Kingdom can commemorate the team’s efforts. Following this came another, slightly larger, announcement.

As reported by Harian Metro, to honor the team for their success, Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud of Saudi Arabia reportedly rewarded each player of the national team with a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The FIFA World Cup 2022 has been anything but the ordinary with historical moments, epic wins and a first time in the Middle East. The green falcons are now at the top of Group C as they prepare for the second match with Poland on November 26.

For more in sports, Cristiano Ronaldo is the first male footballer to score in 5 consecutive World Cups.
