I was concerned about Saudi Arabia after their hype of defeating Argentina in the first group stage match, and they end up at the bottom of the group table with only three points from the first match.
Mexico, on the other hand, tried their hardest to get three points from Saudi Arabia, but the goal difference gave Poland an advantage even after losing to Argentina in the last group-stage stage match. This is particularly painful because Mexico could have qualified if they had scored more goals against Saudi Arabia yesterday.

Nothing can be expected from Saudi Arabia. After picking up three points from Argentina they were unable to maintain their form, two defeats forcing them to the bottom of the table. Elimination of Mexico was more tragic than Saudi Arabia, only because of goal difference they could not spread their wings to the next round. Poland has the advantage in Group C, even though they lost to Argentina they have the right to go to the knockout round because their goal difference is better than Mexico.

Argentina proved that they are among the strongest teams in this fifa by winning yesterday and no one can question their credibility from just one match in which the lost against Saudia Arabia.
I was expecting more performances from Saudia Arabia but unfortunately they didn't perform after the first match and are out of the world cup.
Mexico didn't perform good in this world cup and that's why they didn't make it to next round.

I always knew Argentina are a very good side. They slipped up against Saudi Arabia due to few factors, one being that they lost their key midfielder (Lol Celso) to injury just before the world cup. They adjusted after the first match and are still improving.

Mexico played well against Saudi Arabia and they even played well against Argentina. It's a pity they have to be knocked out.
