Substitutes Michael Gregoritsch and Marko Arnautovic scored late goals as Austria sealed a 3-1 victory over major tournament debutants North Macedonia in their Group C opener at Euro 2020 on Sunday.

Macedonian skipper Goran Pandev became the second-oldest scorer in championship history by equalising after Stefan Lainer’s opener in the first half.
