Rangnick specifically highlighted a strong challenge on Xaver Schlager that he believed was a foul in the build-up to Lionel Messi's opening goal, suggesting VAR should have intervened as it did for an earlier penalty decision against Messi. Lionel Messi scored both goals for Argentina, securing a 2-0 victory and surpassing Miroslav Klose to become the World Cup's all-time leading goalscorer with 18 goals. Despite the loss, Rangnick stated he was largely satisfied with his team's overall performance, particularly their control of the ball and a 'top performance' in the second half. Austria, having previously beaten Jordan 3-1, remains in contention for a spot in the knockout rounds ahead of their final group stage match against Algeria.
