Discover all the essential information about the Algeria – Austria match, counting for the third and final day of Group J at the 2026 World Cup: kick-off time, stadium, TV broadcasters, digital platforms and live audio coverage to follow on Foot Africa.

Algeria faces Austria in a crucial showdown for a spot in the knockout stage of the 2026 World Cup, hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

The two teams are meeting for only the second time in their official history, following their sole encounter at the 1982 World Cup. They are part of Group J, together with Argentina and Jordan.

The match will take place at Kansas City Stadium, in the state of Missouri, USA.

Beyond the sporting stakes, this clash rekindles memories of the infamous "Disgrace of Gijón" at the 1982 World Cup. That controversial episode led to Algeria's elimination and prompted FIFA to introduce simultaneous kick-offs for the final group-stage matches.

FIFA has appointed Uzbek referee Ilgiz Tantashev to officiate the game, assisted by his compatriots Andrey Tsapenko and Timur Gaynullin. Mexico's Katia Itzel Garcia will serve as the fourth official, with Sandra Ramirez as reserve assistant referee.

What time does Algeria – Austria kick off?

The match will get underway in the early hours of Sunday, June 28, at 02:00 GMT at Kansas City Stadium.
