2026 FIFA World Cup schedule: Bracket, matchups, dates, locations, groups, results, how to watch
The full schedule with dates, times and stadiums have been confirmed for all 104 games at the 2026 World Cup.
Austria qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by finishing at the top of Group H in UEFA qualifying. In eight matches played, the team won six and drew one, finishing two points ahead of Bosnia and Herzegovina with a goal differential of +18— scoring 22 and allowing just four.
Group J will be under close watch, since it is where you will find Lionel Messi and the defending World Cup champions, Argentina.
It is nearly here. It feels like the 2026 World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the United States of America has been in the planning stages for centuries, such is all the drama that has already taken place before a ball has been kicked.
Austria, ranked 24th by FIFA, heads to the World Cup under German coach Ralf Rangnick, aiming to surpass their historic 1954 third-place finish.
