Arnautovic: “We will find other solutions against Italy”

With his 34th goal, Austria’s record player Arnautovic drew level with Hans Krankl in the all-time top scorer list. “It’s my job to score goals,” he said easily after the win. Why he saw the game positively, although there was almost an embarrassment: “It’s about us winning and showing a good game. We did both and created enough chances.” Arnautovic expects a completely different game against Italy on Sunday. “The coach will analyze and summarize the Andorra game – and then we will find other solutions against Italy.”

In the Italian Serie A, Arnautovic is currently a real goalscorer with eight goals. In the national team it was only his second goal in Ralf Rangnick’s era. “Marko previously had easier situations to score the goal. It speaks for him that he then did it that way with his weak foot. That was definitely the most difficult of his chances,” said Rangnick. Arnautovic knew why Austria had such a hard time. “Andorra put themselves in very well at the back, there were a lot of spaces open. From time to time we played the ball too slowly or made mistakes or made wrong decisions. But overall it was okay.”

It won’t get any easier against Estonia and Azerbaijan in the European Championship qualifier. Arnautovic: “The coach will give us the right solutions. Of course we’d prefer it if the teams played along and opened up. But they stand back and try to shoot away all the balls. A quick 1-0 lead helps, then everything will work out easier. We didn’t succeed this time.”
