Arab Gulf Cup 27 boosts Green's titles to nine

The Saudi national team won the 2026 Gulf Cup after defeating the United Arab Emirates with a 2-0 score in the final match, adding the fourth title to its record and claiming its ninth championship across various tournaments. This reflects the team's continued strong presence in both regional and international competitions. This victory marks the first for the Saudi team after a 23-year hiatus from winning the Gulf Cup, with their last win in the tournament dating back to 2003. Saudi Arabia’s titles are distributed as follows: three Asian Cup titles, two Arab Cup titles, and four Gulf Cup titles. The team has also demonstrated a significant presence in the World Cup, participating in seven editions from 1994 through 2026, which further cements its position as one of the most prominent Arab and Asian national teams.
