Austria vs Jordan

Austria made a winning return to the FIFA World Cup for the first time since 1998, defeating debutants Jordan 3-1 in Group J at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Romano Schmid opened the scoring with a stunning curling effort in the 20th minute. Jordan fought back and Ali Olwan equalised after the break, giving the debutants a deserved moment to celebrate their first ever World Cup goal. But Austria regained control — a Yazan Al-Arab own goal in the 76th minute restored the lead, before Marko Arnautovic converted a late penalty in stoppage time to seal the win. Jordan showed they belonged on the world stage and will feel they deserve more from the tournament. For Austria, it's the perfect start under Ralf Rangnick as they look to go deep in their first World Cup in 28 years.
