Argentina announces one change for match against Austria

Argentina is making a single change to their starting lineup for their upcoming match against Austria compared to their previous fixture against Algeria. Nahuel Molina will step in at right-back to replace Gonzalo Montiel, who sustained an injury and was subbed off during the first half against Algeria. Montiel's injury is reportedly not serious.

The two teams are set to face each other on Monday in a World Cup Group J encounter at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, United States.

Argentina starting XI: Emi Martinez, Molina, Romero, Lisandro Martinez, Medina, De Paul, Enzo Fernandez, Mac Allister, Almada, Messi, Lautaro Martinez.

During the previous match against Algeria, Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick to match Miroslav Klose's historic record of 16 World Cup goals. A victory against Austria today will secure Argentina's qualification into the knockout stages of the tournament.
