Albania's Historic Goal Shakes Italy in EURO 2024 Opener
Nedim Bajrami's Stunning Strike Stuns Azzurri
Albania made history on Saturday with a remarkable first-minute goal against Italy in the opening match of the EURO 2024 group stage. Nedim Bajrami's strike marked Albania's first-ever goal in a major tournament, sending shockwaves through the Italian team and fans.
Albania's Historic Moment
Prior to Saturday's match, Albania had scored just one goal in their previous appearances in major tournaments. Their solitary strike came in the 2016 EURO against Romania. Bajrami's opener not only gave Albania an early lead but also etched their name into the annals of the competition's history.
The goal came after a swift counter-attack by Albania. Bajrami received the ball on the left flank and surged into the Italian penalty area. With a deft touch, he evaded two defenders and fired a low shot into the bottom corner, leaving Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma helpless.
The goal sent the Albanian fans into raptures and stunned the Italian side. Italy, one of the favorites to win the tournament, had not conceded a goal in their last three matches. Bajrami's strike proved that even underdogs can make their mark on the world stage.
