Arnautović retires as Austria exit World Cup

Out and Arnautović done

Your World Cup is over. Austria 0–3 Spain in the round of 32 on Thursday, and it was not close (4) (13). Marko Arnautović walked off for the last time. Tears at the final whistle. The 37-year-old confirmed his international retirement after the match (1). He leaves with 118 caps and a career that stretched back to 2007.

Oyarzabal brace, Porro on target

Mikel Oyarzabal scored twice, including an 89th-minute finish to seal it. Pedro Porro got the opener and dedicated the goal to his son (3) (4). Spain hit the post twice early and controlled the game from start to finish (13). Luis de la Fuente called his team "almost perfect" (17).

Yamal broke Rangnick's plan

Ralf Rangnick set up to contain Lamine Yamal. It did not work (2). Yamal was named player of the match (7) (16). After the game, he still had regrets about not being decisive enough (7). Rangnick, in a show of respect, said Spain will win the World Cup (5).

Gregoritsch: "A level too far"

Michael Gregoritsch did not sugarcoat it: "Sadly, a level too far for us" (10). Austria never found a foothold. The 0–3 margin is Rangnick's heaviest defeat in 49 games in charge.
