They aren’t calling that one back. Another corner pays off for Austria via an own goal, as a header by Yazan Al-Arab sends the ball into the net. Tempers flare right after that, with players getting separated and Austria’s Marcel Sabitzer shown a yellow card.

That’s going to be treated as a “ball don’t lie” moment in Austria.

Austria seemingly hit paydirt on a corner, as the Jordanian goalkeeper tried to punch the ball away but it was only a glancing blow. Some ricochets resulted in Marko Arnautovic getting a clear shot at goal for a go-ahead goal.

However, Jordan appeals and VAR finds a handball by Stefan Posch. No goal and it’s still tied.

Jordan goalie Yazeed Abulaila goes down after some contact to the face during a jump for the ball. He stayed down as if under extreme duress, but Austria couldn’t take advantage of the vulnerable net. He is remaining in the game after receiving some trainer attention

Jordan scores its first ever World Cup goal on a counter-attack by Oli Alwan, tying the match in the 50th minute.

Austria leads and has held the clear possession edge, but this has been more back-and-forth than expected (maybe not a surprise with Austria’s aggressive pressing style). Jordan has actually had more shots and shots on goal, Austria simply got the screamer from Romano Schmid.

Jordan gets a prime opportunity to respond, but has two shots blocked, the first by Austria goaltender Alexander Schlager and the second by defender Philipp Lienhart. Jordan asks for a handball call, but replay shows the ball hit Lienhart’s back.

Austria’s first World Cup goal since 1998 is a beauty by Romano Schmid from outside the penalty area. What a kick.

As expected, Austria has largely dominated time of possession in the first 17 minutes, but Jordan has taken a couple shots on goal. It’s latest from Odeh Al-Fakhouri gets pushed high, but it’s the kind of stuff they need to do to pull off the upset.

The final game of the day has kicked off in Santa Clara, at 6 a.m. in Vienna and 7 a.m. in Amman.

Austria (4-4-2): Alexander Schlager; Stefan Posch, Philipp Lienhart, David Alaba (c), Phillip Mwene; Konrad Laimer, Xaver Schlager, Nicolas Seiwald, Marcel Sabitzer; Sasa Kalajdzic, Romano Schmid.

Jordan (4-3-3): Yazeed Abulaila; Abdallah Nasib, Yazan Alarab, Ehsan Haddad (c), Mohammad Abualnadi; Nizar Alrashdan, Mohannad Abutaha, Noor Alrawabdeh; Mousa Al Tamari, Ali Olwan, Odeh Fakhoury.

Tuesday belonged to soccer’s superstars. Lionel Messi scored a hat trick against Algeria, Kylian Mbappé bagged a brace against Senegal and Erling Haaland struck twice in Norway’s win over Iraq, giving the trio seven goals between them in a single day of World Cup action.

Lionel Messi is one goal away from World Cup history.

The Argentina captain scored the first World Cup hat trick of his career Tuesday night, leading the defending champions to a comfortable 3-0 win over Algeria in Kansas City. Messi scored in the 17th minute, added another after halftime and completed his hat trick late in the match before exiting to a standing ovation in the 80th minute.

Messi is now tied with Miroslav Klose for most World Cup goals all time with 16. He’ll get a chance to top the list Monday vs. Austria.
