Following their historic 2-1 win against Argentina at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia has declared Wednesday a public holiday in the country.
Saudi Gazette announced on Twitter on Tuesday evening.
The match which was held on Tuesday afternoon saw the Arabian side shockingly defeat World Cup favourites Argentina in Group C after an unbelievable performance.
Although Argentina was tipped to win, plus they had arguably the best player in the world at the moment, seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, Lionel Messi, they struggled to have a foothold in the game losing all three points to a resilient Saudi Arabia.
The tweet read, “King Salman orders that tomorrow, Wednesday, will be a holiday for all employees in public and private sectors as well as students in all phases of education in celebration of #SaudiArabia’s stunning victory against Argentina in #WorldCup2022.”
Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily reported that Manchester United on Tuesday evening announced that Cristiano Ronaldo will leave the club by mutual agreement with immediate effect.
The club, however, thanked Ronaldo for his contribution during the two spells which saw him score 145 goals in 346 appearances.
Manchester United stated this in a statement on its official website.
