Argentina vs Austria Live Score: Argentina will be aiming to extend their winning start to their FIFA World Cup title defence when they face Austria in their second Group J match in Dallas on Monday, 22 June. Argentina and Austria both are coming into this clash after a win in their first game.
Lionel Messi, who had fulfilled his lifelong dream of winning the World Cup in Qatar four years ago, scored a sensational hat-trick as Argentina began their campaign with a 3-0 victory over Algeria in Kansas City last Tuesday. Messi is on the verge of breaking another World Cup record in this game. If he can strike once, he will become the highest individual scorer in the history of World Cups. He is currently tied with Germany’s Miroslav Klose at 16 goals, which is the highest for anyone right now.
Austria too were off to a winning start, beating debutants Jordan 3-1 in San Francisco after Romano Schmid (20’) and Marko Arnautovic (90+12’) scored on either side of an own goal by Yazan Al-Arab. And come Monday, ‘Wunderteam’ will be backing themselves to stop ‘La Albiceleste’ on their tracks and pull off an unlikely victory.
The team that wins the upcoming game at the Dallas Stadium, known more popularly as the AT&T Stadium, in Arlington will not only remain top of the Group J standings but will also be assured of a place in the knockouts.
