Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Arrowhead Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Algeria and Austria.
  • 5' Philipp Mwene has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Fares Chaibi, as he is very good at scoring at Arrowhead Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 11' Marcel Sabitzer has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 11.
  • 16' Philipp Lienhart, a Austria , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 21' With 2 assists to his name this season, Riyad Mahrez is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Algeria.
  • 26' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Vladimir Petković will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 28' The deadlock is broken! Marko Arnautovic gets on the scoresheet on 28 minutes.
  • 33' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 38' Nabil Bentaleb has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 43' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Austria that had 109 games and scored 20 goals.
  • 45' Brilliant from the ! Rafik Belghali makes it 1-1 with a superb finish on 45.
  • 46' A change in the Austria ranks — Marko Arnautovic exits the field as Michael Gregoritsch enters on 46.
  • 51' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 55' GOAL! Marcel Sabitzer scores on 55. Assisted by Konrad Laimer
  • 60' Riyad Mahrez doubles the advantage! 2-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 62' The Austria manager makes a substitution. David Alaba departs to be replaced by Kevin Danso.
  • 67' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Algeria and Austria are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 71' Samir Chergui has so much to prove this time. He replaces Rafik Belghali on 71 minute.
  • 76' It looks like no one’s ball. Algeria is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 81' Austria are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 86' Algeria international Ibrahim Maza has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Algeria 3-3 Austria.
