Excellent goal against Jordan Schmid scored a goal on his lone shot across 83 minutes during Austria's 3-1 win Tuesday against Jordan.

Impact As expected, the right flank of Austria manager Ralf Rangnick's 4-2-3-1 formation primarily included Schmid, who was not its focal point offensively. Despite limited opportunities, he made them count, highlighted by Austria's first goal this World Cup. Schmid proceeded to not do much thereafter, which may explain why he was subbed off for Patrick Wimmer. If their latest game is any indication, most of Austria's offense will be through Marcel Sabitzer, Phillipp Mwene and the left flank, especially if right-back Stefan Posch (face) is out long-term. Nonetheless, despite stiff competition from Wimmer and others, it seems Schmid has his starting role on lock.
