Ralf Rangnick suffered his second defeat in his fourth game as Austria's national soccer coach.
The Austrians lost 0:2 (0:2) against strong Danes on Monday evening.
Wolfsburg striker Jonas Wind (21st minute) and Andreas Skov Olsen (37th) scored the goals in Copenhagen.
After the third win, Denmark continues to lead Group 1 in the Nations League.
Second is Vice World Champion Croatia, who won 1-0 (1-0) in France in revenge for the 2018 World Cup final.
Midfield star Luka Modrić scored the decisive goal in Paris in the fifth minute with a penalty kick.
Ex-Leipziger Ibrahima Konaté had previously stepped on the heel of a Croatian in the penalty area.
The French were dominating, but couldn't find a recipe against the strong Croatian defence.
World champion France remains without a win and is bottom of the group.
Before the game, strangers had painted slogans around the Stade France calling for a boycott of the World Cup in Qatar.
Rangnick may not have been satisfied with the performance of his Austrians either.
The Danes dominated the game from the start, the ÖFB selection hardly had any chances.
After a nice combination, Wind initially took the lead from a short distance.
Then Skov Olsen followed up after a quick counterattack.
Shortly before the end, substitute Christian Eriksen (88th) almost made it 3-0.
But his shot hit the post.
