AFC Asian Cup; Saudi Arabia defeats Oman with a score 2-1 on Tuesday

In Tuesday's thrilling AFC Asian Cup encounter, Saudi Arabia pulled off an incredible comeback to overcome Oman 2-1. An exciting last-minute goal for Saudi Arabia was first disallowed by the VAR system, but it was then overturned and given, adding a noteworthy twist to the match.

The match took place at Khalifa International Stadium as part of the first round of Group F. In the last fifteen minutes, the dynamics of the game shifted. Roberto Mancini, the Saudi Arabian coach, introduced Abdulrahman Ghareeb, a winger, and he made an instant impression. With a deft move in the 78th minute, Ghareeb scored and outplayed three opponents, tying the score at one.

The sixth minute of extra time was the culmination. Saudi Arabia's comeback was completed when Ali Lajami met a corner kick from Ghareeb and helped center-back Ali Al Bulayhi head the ball into the net.
