Having scored the first goal in World Cup history for Saudi Arabia against the Netherlands, Fouad Anwar, a member of the Saudi national team, revealed that he was searching for goalie Mohamed Al-Deayea to join him in celebration.
Anwar stated in an interview with the “goal” programme: “After the goal, I was running and searching for Mohamed Al-Deayea to celebrate with him. I do not know why, but the goal was a historic moment with everything the word means, the first goal of the World Cup and in front of senior stars like Ronald Koman, who kidnapped the ball in front of him to score the goal.
He said, “In the second half, I noticed that the Netherlands squad was terrified, but at the very least, mistakes were made that cost us a draw.
Regarding Solari, he remarked, “He was a coach that gave the player confidence, and on top of that, he was consulting us, and when he asked me about the axis player who he would love to play next to, Talal Al -Jabreen nominated him.”
