Merih Demiral was the first player to score a goal at Euro 2020. What the Turkey center-back couldn't expect is that he was going to score it at his own goal.
Italy had been pushing to get ahead on the scoreboard and after passing through the locker room the ‘azzurra’ team has achieved its goal.
In the 53rd minute, a Domenico Berardi boarding on the right wing ended with a prize. The center of the Sassuolo footballer was tense, at mid-height, to the little girl's heart. Right where Demiral was who could not get away in time and has placed the 0-1 on the scoreboard.
According to MisterChip, this is the first time in the history of a European Championship that an own goal is the first target of the tournament.
