This goal broke the 20-year-old record when Dmitri Kirichenko (Russia) scored in the 67th second in the match against Greece at EURO 2004. However, Bajrami's tricky shot past goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma (Best Goalkeeper of EURO 2020) could not help the Albanian team win. In addition to surpassing Kirichenko, Bajrami also surpassed a series of other names such as Emil Forsberg (Sweden) scored in the match against Poland (82nd second), Yussuf Poulsen (Denmark) scored in the match against Belgium (99th second), both at EURO 2020.
Nedim Bajrami sets record for fastest goal in EURO history
Another record that has attracted a lot of attention is the appearance of the 16-year-old and 338-day-old player Lamine Yamal (Spain) in the match against Croatia. Lamine Yamal not only made history in EURO as the youngest player to play, but also set a record as the youngest player to create a goal. Lamine Yamal broke the record of player Kacper Kozlowski (Poland) at EURO 2020. There is an interesting coincidence that Kozlowski set the record for the youngest player to play in EURO (17 years and 246 days) in the match between Poland and Spain. Another special thing is that Yamal had an assist for Carvajal to score, making the 32-year-old defender the oldest player to score for the Spanish team at EURO.
Yamal grew up in the famous La Masia training academy. In the 2023-2024 season, when he was only 16 years old, Yamal played for Barcelona's first team, played 50 matches, scored 7 goals and had 10 assists. Although he participated in EURO 2024, Yamal still had to do his homework and send it to his teachers at school for testing, because he was still in the 4th year of the compulsory Spanish Secondary School program (ESO).
