Saudi Arabia




Saudi Arabia is world famous because of their oil deposits and refineries, since it is the biggest oil producer in the world (but it "only" has the second biggest reserves, being Venezuela the first one on the list), moving around about the 45% of all the money in the oil market, so they have more importance than maybe you can think if you don't put politics and economics at a similar level. Apart from that, in Arabia you can find other interesting things, like the islamic holy places of Medina and Mecca (and as far as I know, this last one really deserves to be visited, maybe someday I can watch it by myself) and the capital Riyadh (where it's being builded what is going to be the tallest tower in the world, the Kingdom Tower).

Football is the most popular sport in Saudi Arabia, and its national team is, historically, one of the strongest of the asian panorama, having won the Asian Cup in 3 times. However, the Green Falcons have not had yet a strong competitive level in the international stage, but at least they have the honour to be the only arabian asian team to achieve the second round in a World Cup. In the last years, the arabian football has been seeing some improvement, slow but constant, so maybe they can repeat or improve that past results in the future.

The shirt I have as arrived to me just this morning, and is pretty plain and generic, but I love it anyway since the material is very good, is a correct size for me and I love green and white. It is the home design from 2013, under the management of former FC Barcelona's coach Frank Rijkaard. It's a generic design from Nike, exactly the same as my Qatar shirt but with colours changed. The best thing is that is a player issue shirt, what means different material, different cut and those tiny holes in both sides of the shirt.
