Italy Come From Behind To Beat Alabania in Euros

Italy came back from a goal down to beat Albania in their first group game in the UEFA Euro 2024 that is taking place in Germany.

Albanian attacker Nedim Bajrami fired the Albanians ahead just 23 seconds into the match at the BVB Stadion in Dortmund.

Fans all over the world were shocked that defending champions Italy would concede a goal that early in the game against a less fancied team like Albania.

However, Italy quickly leveled through defender Alessandro Bastoni before Barella secured the Group B win, which was more comfortable than the scoreline suggests.

Brentford goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha was very instrumental for the Albanian national team as he made series of crucial saves to deny Italy from scoring several times.

Nicolo Barella ensured defending champions Italy launched their Euro 2024 campaign with a 2-1 victory over Albania, despite conceding the fastest goal in European Championship history.

Juventus winger Federico Chiesa was named the Man of the Match.
