This afternoon’s match between Argentina and Austria might determine the leader of World Cup Group J.
Both teams enter today’s game with three points, having won their opening matches. Meanwhile, Algeria and Jordan sit at the bottom of the group with zero points. So, either team could clinch the top spot based on the outcome of today’s game.
Argentina had a strong start with a commanding 3-0 victory, highlighted by Lionel Messi’s first World Cup hat trick. If they secure another win today, they’ll move on to the round of 32. They could also advance if Algeria wins or draws their match.
On the flip side, Austria can also advance with a victory, provided that Jordan either wins or draws against Algeria. A win for them would mean a spot in the round of 32 as well.
Argentina vs Austria time
The match kicks off today, June 22nd, at 1 PM ET.
