Argentina were left stunned in the first half of their World Cup opener against Saudi Arabia as they had three goals chalked off for offside.
Lionel Scaloni's side took the lead inside the opening 10 minutes through a controversial Lionel Messi penalty, with the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner coolly slotting home after Leandro Paredes had been brought down. Roy Keane and Graeme Souness had differing opinions about whether the penalty should've been given, with the former insistent that it was not a foul.
Meanwhile, the South Americans thought they had doubled their advantage when Messi calmly tucked the ball into the bottom corner. Messi broke in behind the Saudi defence, took a couple touches and passed home beyond the goalkeeper, only to turn and see the raised flag from the assistant.
