Albania’s Nedim Bajrami scores fastest European Championship goal ever to stun Italy
Euro 2024: Who are the favourites?
Nedim Bajrami scored for Albania against Italy after just 23 seconds in the fastest goal in European Championship history.
The Azzurri were shocked in the first minute of their title defence at Euro 2024 in Dortmund.
Federico Dimarco took a throw-in back towards Gigi Donnarumma’s goal. But it lacked enough power to reach a teammate, with Bajrami quick to pounce.
The finish was too powerful, despite hitting the inside of the near post, with the Albania fans celebrating wildly at the Westfalenstadion.
