About This Match

Argentina face Austria in the Group Stage of Group J on Monday, June 22, 2026. Argentina are ranked #1 in the world and managed by Lionel Scaloni; Austria sit at #20 under Ralf Rangnick. The match kicks off at 12:00 local time at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

Argentina

Argentina arrive at the 2026 FIFA World Cup as defending champions, looking to emulate Brazil's 1958-62 back-to-back victories. Lionel Messi, who finally completed his World Cup fairy-tale at Qatar 2022, will be 38 years old and playing in what is almost certainly his last World Cup - a once-in-a-generation farewell that will captivate the footballing world. Under the exceptionally tactically intelligent Lionel Scaloni, La Albiceleste blend Messi's genius with the predatory instincts of Inter Milan's Lautaro Martínez and the emergence of Julián Álvarez. Group J against Austria, Algeria, and Jordan is a very favourable draw for the world champions, who will rightly be installed as one of the two or three leading title contenders.

Austria

Austria's return to the World Cup in 2026 ends a 28-year absence since France 1998 and represents the fruition of Ralf Rangnick's high-energy, pressing-based rebuild of Austrian football. Under the innovative German coach, Austria have transformed into one of Europe's most dynamic sides, playing fast, aggressive football that has made them genuinely difficult to play against. David Alaba - despite serious injury concerns - and the relentless Marcel Sabitzer provide quality and leadership in a balanced squad. Group J pits Austria against defending champions Argentina, Algeria, and Jordan - a group where they must beat the two African and Asian representatives to advance for the first time since 1998.
