Michael Gregoritsch and Marko Arnautovic came off the bench to score a goal each and help Austria beat North Macedonia 3-1 at the European Championship.
It was Austria’s first win at a major soccer tournament in 31 years and its first ever at the European Championship.
David Alaba curled in a precise cross from the left in the 78th minute for Gregoritsch to score the winner. Arnautovic calmly added the third with a minute to go.
Stefan Lainer had given Austria the lead but North Macedonia captain Goran Pandev equalized.
