Who gets a comfortable window?

Vienna (CEST) lands at 7:00 PM, a prime Monday evening slot for Austrian football fans. London at 6:00 PM BST is equally accessible. Dubai at 9:00 PM GST is a good Gulf evening.

Historical context
Argentina won the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where their matches kicked off at 13:00, 20:00, and 22:00 local Doha time, spanning 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM Buenos Aires time. The 2:00 PM Buenos Aires window for this Dallas match is comfortable by those standards. Austria, returning to the World Cup for the first time since 1998, gets a 7:00 PM Vienna kickoff that mirrors the European evening slot their generation of fans grew up watching.
