Two strong trends to remember at the start of Euro 2024: they score a lot of goals against their camp and, above all, they don’t let up until the final whistle. Luka Jovic’s equalizing goal on Thursday in the 96th minute during the match between Serbia and Slovenia was already the sixth scored in added time in 18 matches in the competition. A record. During the last Euro, we only saw five during the 51 matches of the tournament.
We imagine that it is not easy for the mental health of the punters, but from the point of view of the spectator, we enjoy all these twists and turns. Because of these six goals, three changed the course of the match: that of Jovic, therefore, but also that of Klaus Gjasula to allow Albania to equalize against Croatia (2-2, 95th), as well as that of by Francisco Conceiçao to give Portugal victory against the Czech Republic (2-1, 92nd).
For the record, during the first day, the Albanian Nedim Bajrami also scored the fastest goal in the history of a European Championship against Italy, after only 23 seconds of play. definitely be attentive throughout the matches in this edition.
