Back on the World Stage After 28 Years
Austria, a Central European nation we used to see frequently in World Cups, is returning to the biggest stage after 28 years. It would be no exaggeration to say that the red-and-whites, who are in the same group as Argentina, Algeria, and Jordan—their first opponent—have drawn a favorable group. With luck on their side in the World Cup qualifiers as well, Rangnick and his players secured their World Cup berth by finishing first in their group with 19 points from 8 matches—two points ahead of Bosnia and Herzegovina—after facing Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, Cyprus, and San Marino. A victory in their first group match is by no means an unlikely prospect. Austria, which reached the semifinals in 1934 and 1954 and achieved its greatest success by finishing third at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, failed to advance from the group stage in its last two World Cup appearances: Italy 1990 and France 1998. Thirty-six years after their 2-1 victory over the U.S. on June 19, 1990, the red-and-white-clad team will take the field at Levi’s Stadium in California in pursuit of another World Cup win.

Jordan for the first time
Having gained independence in 1946 and joined FIFA in 1956, Jordan never participated in World Cup qualifiers until Mexico 1986. Reaching the final of the 2023 Asian Cup by eliminating South Korea was a very strong indication that they could qualify for this World Cup. In the second round of qualifiers, the Knights finished as group leaders with 13 points from 6 matches, ahead of Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, and Pakistan, advancing to the third round; in this stage, they secured second place—one point ahead of Iraq and behind South Korea—earning their spot in North America. Having left Oman, Palestine, and Kuwait behind in this balanced group while collecting 16 points in 10 matches, there is no doubt that Sellami’s squad—set to make their World Cup debut—will face a challenging yet dream-like tournament. If you’re interested in being part of this team’s fairy-tale story—a team on the rise that we’ll see more often in future World Cups but which has very little international experience—tickets for the Austria vs. Jordan match are currently on sale at Seatpin.
