Fans from Mexico and Poland, who were a tad worried ahead of Tuesday’s Group C opener between Argentina and Saudi Arabia, were over the moon after Lionel Messi & Co went down 1-2 in one of the biggest shocks in the history of the FIFA World Cup. 

“Argentina are the toughest team in our group and among the favourites not just to qualify for the next round, but to possibly go on and win the World Cup. But this defeat has now given us a good chance to go through to the Round of 16,” Mexican fan Rodrygo Bonelli, 26, who is here to watch the World Cup with his mother, Ana, 59, told mid-day on Tuesday.
