Albania scores first and fastest goal in Euros history 23 seconds into match with Italy

Albania has scored the fastest ever goal at a European Championship — after just 23 seconds.

Nedim Bajrami capitalized on an errant throw-in by Italy to smash a rising shot inside the near post in Dortmund on Saturday.

The previous quickest goal in the competition was by Dmitri Kirichenko of Russia after 67 seconds in 2004.
