Saudi Arabia All-time 23 member team

Saudi Arabia 1994

Saudi Arabia made an international breakout in 1984 when they won the Asian Cup.  Abdullah Majed was their star player.  From 1984 onward, the Saudis became a power in Asia.  They won two out of the next three Asian Cups.  In 1994, they qualified for their first World Cup Finals.  They beat Morocco in the first ever World Cup match between Arab countries. And then, Saeed Al-Owairan scored one of the best goals of the tournament against Belgium  as Saudi Arabia advanced to the second round.   Saudi Arabia would qualify for the next three World Cup Finals.  However, they were unable to match the results of USA 1994.

If there were an All-Time World Cup, this would be the 23 players I would bring to the tournament.
