Rangnick's tricks
“Don’t lay our cards on the table yet”
Austria and the standards - after the national team's 2-0 win in Slovakia on Saturday, this was also a much-discussed topic: "We didn't want to show too much yet, but our opponents will have already registered this 1-0," said captain Marcel Sabitzer. Team boss Ralf Rangnick is also aware of the importance of such key scenes: "It's an important factor in the game, we handle it with care."
Even if the world-record goal was not a genuine set-piece, Christoph Baumgartner's 1:0 after 6.3 seconds showed that Austria's team has some ideas when it comes to resting balls. The team boss agreed: "In principle, the goal wasn't a set piece, but it was still an action where no opponent touched the ball." Michael Gregoritsch also deserves an assist, as he was the only one who touched the ball before Baumi after the kick-off.
