Facts

  • Saudi Arabia qualified for their third successive FIFA World Cup™ finals in 2002. The royal family had forbidden football in the kingdom until 1951. In 1994, shock wins over Belgium and Morocco saw them reach the second round, where Sweden proved too strong and triumphed 3-1.

  • Four years later they failed to progress from the group stage after being overpowered by Denmark and eventual winners France.

  • In 2002, Saudi Arabia opened their tournament with an 8-0 loss at the hands of Germany. Subsequent, though more moderate, defeats to Cameroon and Republic of Ireland were merely exercises in damage limitation.
