Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud celebrated the victory over Argentina in the most royal manner in Doha.

Photos published on social media showed Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed holding a Saudi flag in a room full of his close associates. 

The Saudi national team defeated Argentine with two goals to one in the first round of the group stage in the World Cup Qatar 2022.

Lionel Messi said Argentina's shock loss to Saudi Arabia was a "very heavy blow" but vowed the South American champions would bounce back from the defeat.

"It's a very heavy blow, a defeat that hurts, but we must continue to have confidence in ourselves," Messi said after Argentina crashed to a stunning 2-1 loss in Group C.

"This group is not going to give up. We will try to beat Mexico," he added.
