After Saudi Arabia’s unexpected 2-1 World Cup victory over Argentina, the nation awoke on Wednesday to a public holiday.

King Salman declared a holiday for all public and private sector employees and schools were closed.

Streets were packed with cheers in Saudi Arabia, judging by the fact that they would proceed to the second round if they beat either Poland or Mexico in the next week. This makes the Saudi Arabia kingdom very excited and you can take a guess that the stadiums that they will be playing with will be very packed with fans.
