Austria and Turkey, two of the surprise packages at Euro 2024, compete for the last place in the quarterfinals as they clash in Leipzig.
Ralf Rangnick’s Austria have been one of the most impressive sides of the tournament, breezing past Poland and upsetting the Netherlands on the final matchday in a tough Group D. They were narrowly defeated by France in the opening game but still went through as the group winners, despite being far from favourites to progress from the pool.
Turkey suffered a chastening 3-0 loss to Portugal in Group F, but wins over Georgia and Czechia were enough to send them into the knockout rounds. Vincenzo Montella’s side have been aggressive in their approach, and in their last game against the Czechs, they collected 11 yellow cards. Hakan Calhanoglu, and Samet Akaydin are both suspended for this match.

Austria vs. Turkey live updates, highlights from Euro 2024
24 mins: Austria half clear but Turkey win a corner off Baumgartner. Guler trots over the the flank where he created the opener.it’s cleared behind. Another great delivery and Demiral heads over.
23 mins: Scruffy few minutes from Austria and Posch bundles Yildiz over. Decent crossing position on the left for Turkey. Or Guler might shoot?
19 mins: Turkey break, Guler has options ahead of him but sees Pentz off his line. He goes for it, from the halfway line. It’s wide, it’s a silly idea but that’s just the vibe tonight. Why not go with it?
14 mins: Guler twisting and turning in thr right channel after Turkey get through the Austria press. It’s a teasing delivery and Danso gets there in front of his goalkeeper to hack away. Fire being fought with fire over and over. This is fantastic.
12 mins: Sabitzer’s free-kick spins off the wall and behind for a corner. The delivery is deep, back it goes to Schmid, who’s low cross is booted clear.
11 mins: Kokcu brings down the dangerous Baumgartner and gets a booking. He’ll miss the quarterfinal if Turkey get through. Not the last time you’ll hear that hypothetical tonight.
8 mins: Pentz fires a pass with far too much heat on it at Mwene. It’s a Turkey throw deep in Austrian territory that they can’t make the most of.
7 mins: Off we go again with another Austria corner. Nope, no one’s bothering to defend these tonight. Leinhart gets up and puts a free header over.
5 mins: Oh my word, Austria almost level! Sabitzer’s corner skids through everyone, Baumgartner can’t convert at the far post, with which he collides. He’ll need some treatment.
3 mins: Austria look to hit straight back and Baumgartner fizzes a drive narrowly wide. This is already more entertaining than both yesterday’s games.
1 min: GOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!
What a start! Austria make an unsightly mess of trying to deal with Guler’s corner and Demiral slams into the roof of the net.
Kickoff: 1st Half
We’re away. Gunok has to come straight out to claim a through ball, then Turkeyt fly up the other end to win a corner. Hold onto your hats.
4 mins before kickoff: The teams are out and it’s anthems time at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig – a venue that knows Ragnick’s tactical stylings very well
15 mins before kickoff: Pre-tournament friendlies don’t tend to count for much once we get down to the serious business of knockout football. However, it feels like we can make a slight exception here. In the March international break, Austria hammered Turkey 6-1 om Wein. Michael Gregoritsch scored a hat-trick that night and is only on the bench here. Nothing to worry about then, lads…
30 mins before kickoff: Austria are favourites tonight having impressed with their high-octane style. But if they reach the quarterfinals, they are unlikely to do so completely unscathed. Ralf Rangnick’s side have a remarkable eight players on a yellow card. If any of them are booked tonight they will be banned for the weekend meeting with the Netherlands in Berlin if they get there.

50 mins before kickoff: It’s hard to see beyond this one being a thriller given what these teams have thrown up so far. There’s understandably a lot of talk around the lavishly gifted Real Madrid youngster Arda Guler and he’s joined by another teenager in the Turkey attack tonight, Juventus’ Kenan Yildiz.

1 hr 5 mins before kickoff: A late double from Donyell Malen has given the Netherlands a resounding 3-0 victory. Malen put through his own goal as Austria beat the Oranje 3-2 in their final group game. Can Ralf Rangnick’s men get the win here to set up a rematch?
1 hr 30 mins before kickoff: The winners of this game tonight will take on the victors from the ongoing quarterfinal in Munich. The Netherlands lead Romania with 20 minutes remaining. It’s 1-0 thanks to Cody Gakpo’s first half goal but the Dutch are well on top and have missed a string of chances during the second half. Will they live to regret it?

2 hours before kickoff: If there’s one thing Austria can’t be accused of doing at Euro 2024, it’s parking the bus. Can Ralf Rangnick’s team produce another stirring performance against Turkey, or will Real Madrid’s Arda Guler drive his team to the quarterfinals?

Marcel Sabitzer has so far run the show for Austria and he and Christoph Baumgartner will seek to supply veteran striker Marko Arnautovic.
