The Austrian national team is fighting for important points for the Nations League in the away game in Northern Ireland.
Team boss Franco Foda had high speed in mind the night before the Nations League game in Northern Ireland. “It will also be important tomorrow that we keep the pace of the game high and then take advantage of the opponent’s weaknesses like ice,” Foda said before the final training session in Belfast on Saturday. Unsurprisingly, Foda left open the selection of which lineup or formation the ÖFB team will compete on. “I also don’t want to make it so easy for my colleague from Northern Ireland.”

Northern Ireland’s opponents are now more variable with coach Ian Baraclough compared to the two matches two years ago. “They play more flexibly with the new coach,” Foda said. “The team is very flexible in the game and constantly changes position in the last zone. But we are prepared for that.”
Christoph Baumgartner emphasized that he should accept the “intense game” of the Northern Irishmen and want to reach “at least the same level” in this regard. “If we play our soccer class later, then I am convinced that we can add all three points.”
