As part of the second round of the FIFA World Cup group stage, Argentina will face Austria at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Under head coach Lionel Scaloni, Argentina has displayed remarkable tactical flexibility, frequently switching between 4-4-2 and 4-3-3 formations during matches. Lionel Messi operates in a free role and is largely relieved of defensive responsibilities. In their opening match of the tournament, the South Americans delivered a convincing 3-0 victory over Algeria. Argentina has excelled in controlling the midfield and uses an effective counter-pressing approach to regain possession quickly.
