Croatia Loses to Spain, Albania Makes History at Euros

Croatia's Demoralizing Defeat

Croatia suffered a demoralizing 3-0 defeat to Spain in their opening match of Euro 2024. The loss marks the first time Croatia has lost their opening match at a major tournament since the 2014 World Cup.

Albania's Historic Goal

In other news, Albania made history at the tournament by scoring the fastest goal in the history of the European Championship. The goal came in just 10 seconds by Armando Broja, breaking the previous record set by Russia's Dmitri Kirichenko in 2004.

Croatia will next face Morocco in their second match of the tournament, while Spain takes on Albania. The match will be a must-win for Croatia, who will need to bounce back from their opening-match defeat and avoid a second straight loss at the tournament.
