Spurs fans had to witness a horror show for defender Cristian Romero as his Argentina side conceded two goals in seven minutes at the start of the second half to fall 2-1 behind to Saudi Arabia in a shock turnaround.
Lionel Messi's penalty had given Argentina the lead in a crazy first half that saw three goals ruled out for offside but wayward attacking meant that the underdogs remained in the contest.
The unfancied Saudis then shocked Messi and co with two stunning goals inside 10 minutes. First Saleh Alshehri got the better of Romero before firing past Emi Martinez, then Salem Aldawsari curled in a brilliant second. The quickfire goals highlighted the decision of Lionel Scaloni to start Romero despite his injury issues at club level.
