News about Christoph Baumgartner

Christoph Baumgartner has issued a public apology to Martin Odegaard after the Arsenal captain was forced off injured on international duty. Norway played host to Austria in a Nations League clash on Monday, with ex-Man United midfielder Marcel Sabitzer drawing level after Felix Horn Myhre gave the hosts the lead. With the score still level in the second half Baumgartner launched into a mistimed challenge on Odegaard that led to him requiring treatment on the pitch.

The playmaker suffered an ankle injury after a slide tackle from Christoph Baumgartner and was taken off 67 minutes into Norway's 2-1 Nations League win over Austria on Monday night.

Manchester City star Erling Haaland , who scored an 80th-minute winner, was among the team-mates to console Odegaard by patting him on the back as he hobbled away.

Turkey goalkeeper Mert Gunok etched his name into football folklore with an incredible save late on in his side's Euro 2024 victory against Austria. Gunok showed superb reflexes to keep out Christoph Baumgartner's header and preserve Turkey's lead as they made it through to the quarter-finals. Lee Dixon on commentary for ITV hailed the save as being like a 'Gordon Banks replica'. The save from Gunok has prompted discussion regarding the greatest stops of all time, with his effort certainly deemed worthy of a place in that category, but what is the best piece of goalkeeping ever?

The supporter fell three metres from the stand into the depression next to pitch-level at Berlin's Olympic Stadium and was knocked out.

On another chastening night for Julian Nagelsmann's boys, who suffered 3-2 home loss to Turkey on Saturday, Germany had Leroy Sane sent off for pushing both hands into Phillipp Mwene's face.

Leroy Sane, a Bayern Munich player, was dismissed after arguing an opponent in the face.
