The FIFA World Cup Russia 2018 started with the host playing against Saudi Arabia on June 14th. Back in March-April we hosted the US-stage filming of the TV documentary Trip 1994 where Saeed Al-Owairan, Fahad Al-Ghesheyan, Ahmed Jamil Madani and Mohamed Abduljawad, four former players of the Saudi national soccer team revisited the locations they went to during the US tournament in 1994.
During the filming we visited Stockton University campus in Atlantic City, NJ where the team concentrated to prepare for the tournament, then the RFK Stadium in Washington DC where the team played against Belgium during which Saeed scored one of the best World Cup goals ever.
After DC, we visited Dallas. Here the team played against Sweden which won the game and put an end to the best performance by the Saudi team in the entire World Cup history. We finished our shoot in NYC and NJ where the team played in Giants Stadium, which no longer exists.
We would like to share with you the behind the scenes pictures of the shoot.
Enjoy!
