Match Events
- 0' What a night it is going to be! Austria welcome France for this crunch clash at Merkur Spiel-Arena.
- 5' Austria have won 20 goals from 109 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 16' That looks like a foul for a card for Maximilian Wober.
- 21' Austria is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 26' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Stefan Posch made 407 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 31' Over 31 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 34' Poor challenge from Philipp Mwene. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 38' Against the run of play, Maximilian Wober has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 43' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Austria needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 48' The 31-year-old Mike Maignan has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 53' 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.
- 56' Ousmane Dembele is having his name booked by the referee on 56.
- 59' Maximilian Wober makes way for Gernot Trauner at the 59 minute mark. A tactical switch from Austria.
- 64' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Patrick Pentz suffering a number of foals already.
- 71' The supporters are chanting for Randal Kolo Muani. He replaces Ousmane Dembele on 71 minute.
- 76' France has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 79' A moment of madness from Christoph Baumgartner on 79 minutes earns him a card. Austria will be frustrated.
- 84' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Konrad Laimer.
- 88' Philipp Mwene makes way for Alexander Prass at the 88 minute mark. A tactical switch from Austria.
- 90' France player sees a card in front of him.
- 90' A change in the France ranks — Kylian Mbappe exits the field as Olivier Giroud enters on 90.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Austria.
