After Robert Lewandowski scored in the second half, a Saudi Arabian fan watching from the stands went viral on social media.
Abdulelah Al-Malki’s mistake helped the Barcelona star score his first goal at this year’s World Cup at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan.
Al-Malki lost possession of the ball and Lewandowski, one of the best strikers of his generation, easily deflected the goal.
Minutes later, this video of the fan in green changing his Saudi Arabia shirt for that of ‘Lewandowski 9’ went viral:
