Ralf Rangnick has overseen his first game at the helm of the Austrian national team - just weeks after confirming he would not stay at Manchester United in a consultancy role.
They took on Croatia away from home in a Nations League match that saw Rangnick's new team register a 3-0 win thanks to goals from Marko Arnautovic, Michael Gregoritsch and Marcel Sabitzer. The 63-year-old was overjoyed come the end of the game.
"We had problems in the first 25 minutes, but getting the lead just before the break did us good," Rangnick explained. "In the second half we played really well and scored two wonderful goals. We could even have scored more. I am very satisfied."
