Legends within reach! Sabitzer on the hunt for a record
Marcel Sabitzer will set the ÖFB record for appearances at major tournaments with an appearance in the European Championship round of 16 next Tuesday in Leipzig.
The 30-year-old has made ten appearances in the finals so far - at the 2016, 2021 and 2024 European Championships. The association record for appearances in the finals is held by Friedl Koncilia, Erich Obermayer, Bruno Pezzey and Herbert Prohaska, who all played eleven games at the 1978 and 1982 World Cups.
Sabitzer, who also scored his first European Championship goal against the Netherlands (3-2) on Tuesday, is now level with Hans Krankl with ten final round matches each after the group stage. The Borussia Dortmund midfielder is already the ÖFB's record player at European Championships. His team-mate Marko Arnautovic has nine European Championship games, although he missed the second group game against the Netherlands (0:2) in 2021 due to suspension.
