Algeria v Austria: their 2nd World Cup meeting — Austria won the only previous meeting.

Algeria have faced European opposition 9 times at the World Cup — won just once (W1 D3 L5)

At 24 years, 20 days, Rafik Belghali is Algeria's youngest WC scorer since their very first match in 1982, when Rabah Madjer and Lakhdar Belloumi both struck against West Germany, aged 23.

Riyad Mahrez's goal in the 93rd minute is the latest Algeria have ever scored in a World Cup match, excluding extra time.

Riyad Mahrez put Algeria ahead at 90+3, only for Saša Kalajdžić to answer at 90+6— making Austria the first team ever to avoid a WC defeat after conceding a go-ahead goal at the 90th minute or later.

Saša Kalajdžić scored just 61 seconds after coming on — the third-fastest substitute goal at this WC, and the eighth-fastest ever. At 90+6, it's also the latest Austria have ever scored in a World Cup match.

Algeria have conceded in each of their last 8 World Cup matches — their last World Cup clean sheet was against England in 2010.

Austria have now conceded in 12 straight World Cup matches — among European sides, only Switzerland (22) and Sweden (15) have ever had a longer run.

Algeria become the 9th of Africa's 10 teams to reach the knockouts. Before 2026, no more than half of Africa's sides ever made it out of the group stage.

Riyad Mahrez scored his first and second World Cup goals at 35 — and becomes the first Algerian ever to score at the tournament aged 32 or older.

Algeria reach the World Cup knockouts for the second time in their history, after 2014 in Brazil.

Austria advance past the group stage for the first time since 1982 — an edition hosted by Spain, who now await them in the Round of 32.

Riyad Mahrez (Algeria) earned a standout match rating of 9.2 (2 goals).
