Viewing from Austria

For fans in Vienna and across Austria (Central European Summer Time, UTC+2 in June), the Argentina match on June 22 is the scheduling gift: a prime-time 19:00 evening kickoff for Austrian football’s most significant fixture in decades. Watch parties will fill Vienna’s bars and restaurants in Innsbruck, Salzburg, and Graz. The Jordan opener at 06:00 on a Monday morning is a commitment most Austrian fans will make anyway for this historic occasion. The Algeria finale at 04:00 requires the deepest dedication of the group stage.
