Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Riyad Mahrez scored twice in the second half as Algeria fought back from 2-1 down to draw 3-3 with Austria in a chaotic World Cup encounter, setting up a clash with Switzerland on 3 July. The result leaves both sides with mixed emotions after a match that swung wildly from end to end.

Marko Arnautović opened the scoring for Austria in the 28th minute from a David Alaba assist, but Rafik Belghali levelled just before half-time. Marcel Sabitzer restored Austria's lead in the 55th minute with Konrad Laimer providing the ball, before Riyad Mahrez struck twice in the 60th and 90th minutes — both set up by Houssem Aouar — to put Algeria ahead deep into stoppage time. Saša Kalajdžić then snatched a point for Austria in the 90th minute from Michael Gregoritsch's assist.

Austria were the better side in the first half, but Algeria grew into the game after the break in an even second period. CheckLive's model rated Austria marginally ahead, but the result did not confirm that — a draw was the fair outcome. A live bet on Austria at 1.75 lost as the flow went against the prediction. Algeria now face Switzerland in their next fixture.
