📋 Messi on for the record? Argentina named for second Copa test | OneFootball

Argentina and Austria are set for this Monday’s (22) match in the second round of the World Cup group stage.

The match takes place in Dallas and pits two teams that won their opening games in the tournament against each other.

The South Americans beat Algeria, while the Europeans defeated Jordan.

Whoever wins will move very close to securing qualification for the knockout stage as Group J leaders.

Check out the starting lineups below:

Argentina

Lionel Messi, of course, starts for the match. If he scores, he will become the all-time top scorer in World Cup history outright.

He takes the field tied with Germany’s Miroslav Klose, with 16 goals each.

Lionel Scaloni’s starting lineup has just one change, with Molina replacing Montiel at full-back.

Austria

Austria have made changes compared to the starting lineup from their opener.

The team takes the field with three center-backs and a new striker: Gregoritsch instead of Kalajdzic.
